Colour Creations - Balmy Blue




This week our focus colour is Balmy Blue. A lovely, gentle mid-range blue that combines with other colours superbly.


Paired with Misty Moonlight, it gives dimension to these blooms. This is such a simple technique using sponge daubers, but gives such a pretty result.


For the other flower it's Pale Papaya, matched with Polished Pink and the leaves use Mint Macaron and Just Jade.


I keep turning to Artistry Blooms Sequins for a little bling. They're so easy to add and come in 5 colours.


When you leave the card you are creating on a little larger, it gives scope to add a matching strip on the inside of the card. Don't you love the texture from Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder?
