I know the perspective in this is a bit skewed. Off to bed with earache, so I'll try for a better picture tomorrow, and will be back at breakfast to enjoy everyone else's work.
This is for today's WT challenge, to use an online colour combination generator or something that would push us into using different colours to normal.
Fact, colour challenges are not my thing.
Fact, even though I could choose my own, and spent a long time admiring lots, I still ended up with one that was hard to do.
I loved the link Julia gave us, but 5 colours was more than I could handle and I couldn't find how to get just 3, so I used this site here - http://www.colorsontheweb.com/colorwizard.asp#wizard.
First of all I used dry emboss to stamp the big flower from Pretty Amazing on the Euphoria and sponged it with dark pink, but I didn't like it, so it's in the recycle bin.
I'd also stamped the hummingbird, so I coloured it with H2Os. The oval was stamped with Pretty Petals using Marvy Markers, and I added a couple of Primas and some silver Stickles. I punched out 1/8" holes all round the green scalloped layer. The pink layer is embossed with Birds and Swirls. I'd have liked to mat it onto green, but I had no more green in the same colour...The base is blue, edged with silver. I layered up some green and pink strips, embossed them and stuck them down the left side, before attaching a bunch of fibres and a sentiment from Riveting, with a circle of Euphoria and a page pebble for the centre. Photo corners in the green and Euphoria, and that was it.
