Intimidating Colours

Photo Details
Poster: susanbri

 When I first saw the CAS Challenge yesterday, I was stumped as I couldn't think how I'd put those colours together, and then today I remembered a piece of dp that was wasting away in a drawer. It is the perfect colours for the challenge (except that the red might be a bit too dark, but it is red!). There is a bit of brown in the dp but only around the edges so it didn't really get incorporated with the others but it was perfect for the sentiment.

I stamped the sentiment in brown on the same cs as the cardbase and punched it out along with 3 squares from the dp, and then punched larger squares from scraps of cs in lime, turquoise, red, and brown. Stuck them together and then spent an age getting them nicely and evenly spaced on the card!

The dp is by Basic Grey and is called Figgy Pudding - Basic Grey has the best names for its dp!

I love the use of your colors for the challenge. This is such a simple yet vibrant card and transferable for so many occasions! Terrific job!

Fabulous - love the colours (although I would probably not be brave enough to use them!!).

I love how you used the colors for this challenge! Your design does not exude that you were intimidated....nicely done!

I love this paper, Susan! You did well with lining up those squares. I always mess them up. Usually the last one too. This sure makes a pretty Christmas card!
