A color challenge!

I just love color challenges! I guess it's the one part of design I struggle with the most. I can look at art, pictures, or other blogs and find plenty of inspiration, then I hit a brick wall on color palettes. So today I found another Colour Q color challenge. And in the midnight hour, I FINALLY finished and posted it. The chipboard frame is kraft color, not as dark brown as in the picture. I really need some new lighting for my camera...


and close up:

I really like the metallic flakes in the paper I used for one of the butterflies. This card was inspired by a card I found on the Altenew blog. It's by the very talented Jocelyn Olsen at Red Balloon Cards. Check it out! 

Anyway, this was our color palette and I hope you enjoy the card.



Until next time!
