Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #523-A Color Challenge

Hello everyone!! Just popping in with a card for this weeks Cupcake Inspiration Challenge #523.  

This week the design team is playing with Di's Digital Stamps on their cards. HOWEVER, I don't have any of these so I chose to do a more graphic card, using die cuts as my design element. 


The challenge this time around is a color challenge. Can you guess which colors we had to use?

In the badge, the yellow and blue are really bright. I toned mine down a bit by using a slightly different shade of both colors. 

I used Simon Says Stamps Geometric Square Builders to die cut pattern paper from My Minds Eye's Tutti Frutti paper collection, Bo Bunny's Lemonade Stand collection and a gingham scrap from Lawn Fawn. I wanted the design to be simple as I wasn't sure how these squares would look together when done.

The sentiment is stamped using The Ton's Easy Expression sentiment stamp and matching die. I added some sequins around the sentiment to give it more emphasis.


I was not sure how I was going to do this challenge but I LOVE how my card came out. I know that this color mix is not the usual to use for a more graphic card but I think it all pulls together nicely.

Please hop on over to the Cupcake Inspirations Blog to join us in the latest challenge and to see the other beautiful projects the Design Team created. I cannot wait to see what you create!!

I want to thank you for taking the time to stop by today. Have a FABULOUS day!!

Hi Nora! I love the clean lines and mix of pattern paper that reminds me of a beautiful quilt! Lovely!
