The first color challenge was chosen from a contest on the Dynamic Duo Facebook page - Lucky Limeade and Pool Party!! The deal with this challenge is to use ONLY these two colors (plus any neutrals) on any paper crafting project - cards, scrapbooking, digital or other.
I love how cheerful these two colors are together, so I made a card of "comfort"...

Both cards are just gorgeous, I love this colour combo.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work. Loved these cards. I tried to pin one of them on Pinterest for future inspiration but got a message the picture was not pinable. I wish it would work as Pinterest is a great way to organize pictures for future inspiration. :-)
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are so pretty and bright. I do love the colors together . I don't know if I would have used these on my own so Im so glad I tried it, because I love the combo. Beautiful inspirational cards.
