Color Play

Color-swatch I decided to give the Paper Crafts Color Play challenge a try.  Man, those were some tough colors to combine & to photograph.  Every time I look at a card by Dawn McVey and the way she is able to perfectly balance & combine colors, I am amazed.  I think my strength is in combining patterned papers rather than solids.

This great vintage image is from Red Lead (I shouldn't have clicked through … so many more I'd love to add to my collection).

To do the corners, I turned my Martha Stewart border punch upside down and positioned the corner of the paper in the center.  I love the effect (and getting more uses out of one punch).  The sketch is this week's CPS.
