Deconstructing Color

Two cards today, again, for two color challenges:  ColourQ and Curtain Call.  For both of these challenges I took the cards down to the basics of each color challenge.  There is almost no cardstock and/or patterned paper used for either card other than the white cardstock used to make the cards.  I tried to rely solely on my inks and thankfully I have inks in  pretty much all the colors used.  I did use a bit of patterned paper for my ColourQ card.

First up is my card for ColourQ:  Cherry Cobbler, Poppy Parade, So Saffron & Always Artichoke plus white.  I originally made this particular card for the Splitcoaststampers color challenge and because I liked how well it turned out I decided to make it again, using the ColourQ colors.  Everything used for the card is from Stampin Up!, except the white cardstock which is PTI.  I added a bit of scoring for interest.

The second card is for Curtain Call:  Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Wild Wasabi & Pacific Point plus white.  I have the PTI set Dot Spot and immediately thought of it for the card.  I stamped two of the smaller circle/dot images in Real Red & Pumpkin Pie.  I hand cut them out and then roughed up the edges.  I used a Pacific Point cord button to put the two together.  The stem, leaves and sentiment is from a Close to My Heart set With Love.  

Thanks for taking a peek....
