WT311 GREY doesn't need to be gloomy (2/24/11)
Hello everyone
The Challenge.
GREY as a neutral
Details.
use GREY as a neutral color. Instead of choosing a white, brown or black base which are the most common neutrals, reach for grey!
Tips. (suggestions)
1. grey is typically a masculine color but can be pretty when adding girly elements to it
2. silver is another option
3. add a pop of color on a grey base.
4. grey goes with all colors...so play and have fun!
Please remember to put WT311 in your keywords section and post a link back here so that we can all see your beautiful creations. Feel free to create as many projects as you wish but keep in mind that this is not a contest. Use this challenge as inspiration and hopefully you see your creativity flourish. You can combine this challenge with another
My sample: Friends
WT311 Gallery Submissions: HERE
I will do my very best to comment on each and every project but there may be times that I simply will not be able to.
Thank you so much for playing along.
I hope you have fun creating!
Kim

Using the gray background and base was easier than I thought it would be. Thanks for the motivation, Kim.

Love your challenge, Kim. I love grey and white together. A box of PTI goodies arrived this week and I was itching to use them. Your challenge seemed like the perfect opportunity. Thanks!

What a great challenge, Kim! Thank you for reminding me to not just associate grey with grey skies and winter going on too long! Here is my card:
First Bloom
Have a great, hopefully sunny, day! Ohio knew grey would be a challenge. Another grey sky day for us.
Hugs and smiles
