I am doing a color challenge today
#128 - color challenge
here's the color palette
I will have to admit that it was not a easy one for me, I had a hard time finding the color "Night of Navy", I almost wanted to run to Michael's just to find something in that color, so I could use it on this card.....
I finally found something from my "teeny bits" box, a box that I keep all the little pieces of paper, some even smaller than an ONE INCH square, LOL, do you save all those up for rainy days? LOL!
I stamped a frame image on cream color cardstock, I used dark blue ink, but it doesn't show much of a dark blue since it is on a cream cardstock. And I placed a tiny piece of "Night of Navy" blue in the middle of the frame, Tada!!!!!! Now I have the blue color "settled"
Here's the LINK again to Create with Connie and Mary if you want to play along
