Here is this weeks color challenge over at the Play Date Cafe. http://theplaydatecafe.blogspot.com/
I have to say this color pallet was a bit of a challenge for me, one of the reasons I'm submitting here at the last minute. First off I didn't have anything in a light grey...lol. But once I got started I came up with 2 cards.
I decided on the first one for my submission. I used the Tim Holtz embossing folder to create the background. I then went over it with Pumice Stone distress ink to get as close to a grey background as I could. I used the smooch illuminate over the butterfly image on the pattern paper to help bring it out. Unfortunaly you can't see the glimmery goodness in the photo.
For this card I used a Hero Art's Cling stamp, CG248, stamped in Citrus Adirondak ink. The butterfly (CL115) and sentiment are also from Hero Arts.
