and another challenging set of colors for CQC51, but when I initially saw them I thought to myself: "how pretty, I'm sure I can come up with something, no problem"... Well, I did have a problem. I made a card last night that after I finished it I just didn't like how it turned out. And upon reflection I concluded that it was because I used way too much of the Poppy Parade color and way too much white. I spent most of today rethinking how I would combine the colors and I think I came up with a more pleasing combination. I kpet Poppy Parade to a minimum, as well as the white.
I used the current CPS sketch 185 to help me along. And I think I still have enough time to post the card on the CPS blog.
Thanks for taking a peek.... hope your weekend is going well!
