Colour Combos Galore #208

Well another week has past and another colour combo is LIVE!! Check out all the details HERE!!!

This month’s theme is all about books and reading, we have a lot of fun images and challenges in store for you so let’s get started!! This week's Designer Challenge: Focus on Product - Pearls! You can use adhesive pearls, pearl brads, beads of pearl, strings of pearl, oh the possibilities!! Put your thinking caps on and get creative!



Colour Combo:


My Design Team layout:

In sickness & health.... Another photo from when my mum was sick....just love this photo of my Dad and Mum and because of the mirror you can also see the back of them....I was inspired by the tea cup sitting on top of the books.  I just laid some masking tape down, sprayed it with some Denim Blue glimmermist and then peel the masking tape back off, then layered everything on top of that!



Using an old MME diecut and the paper behind the photo is some Glitz.  Flowers are mainly Prima and some Kaiser.


Man it was hard finding some 'Sugared Lilac' in my stash...searched for ages and finally found a little spotty Purple Pumpkin button, and some Websters alpha stickers....


I would love to see you have a go at this colour palette.  Remember you can always add Black, Kraft & White to this colour combo. Try it...you might be surprised at what you can come up with :)))

Hope you all have a lovely weekend :))
Thanks for stopping by...I am always blown away by everyone's comments.
THANK YOU :)))
