Hero Arts Color Challenge




Hello all....

Happy Holidays to you all. Are you finished your shopping as yet? Never fear....you still have until Wednesday to get your gifts.

I enjoy this season so much. With all the blogs and websites showning all the creative ways you can make handmade gifts, ornaments, and cards....it gets me into the creative spirit....and when I feel creative, I love to get involved in challenges and contest.

The cards that I am posting are cards that I submitted to Heroarts.com. This is an AWESOME website that sells rubbber stamps, inks, embellishments, as well as how-to videos. When you get a chance, please check this website out and come back and post a message on what you thought of it...I would love to hear what you think.

But, in any case, the challenge on the Hero Arts Blog was color combinations. They gave different color combinations (ie. teal blue, brown, pea green, taupe, and burgandy) and you had to use them in your project - card, scrapbook layout, or project. I submitted 2 cards and this is what I came up with. Oh yeah, BTW, you had to use one of their stamps on the project....another requirement.

Let me know what you think of the cards. Making these cards were ALOT out of my comfort zone, or what I typically make - my cards are pretty much clean lines.....alot of symmetry, simple. These cards - I think at least - were more collage-like, which is a challenge for me...

So please...post a comment b/c I love to hear your feedback. Thanks so much for stopping by and be sure that you have a HAPPY, SAFE, and CREATE-LOTS-OF-MEMORIES Holiday!!!!

Hugs!
