PPA130 Color Challenge

It's time for another challenge at Pals Paper Arts and we have a Color Challenge (PPA130) for you with a bit of a twist!  Use Lucky Limeade, Always Artichoke, and a color of your choice to create your own color combo!   I added Perfect Plum as my color choice to create a Springtime color trio for my card.  This color trio also happens to be my oldest daughter's favorite colors, so that made them fun for me to work with (Hi, Kitty)!  Stampin' Write Markers were used to add all three colors to the floral image from the Fresh Vintage SAB set.  By adding a mix of patterned papers in polka dots and stripes, it creates what I call a "modern vintage" look!  Clean, contemporary, and easy on the eyes!  Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think!

Need a little nudge to join the fun at PPA?  See what color each of the PPA Design Team members added to create their color trio by clicking here!  Remember, you can use any brand of products or supplies to play along!  So gather your supplies and get busy!  I can't wait to see what you create!

Oh my, who would have thought these three colors together would look so stunning?! Awesome card!

Margaret this is gorgeous. I am amazed how 'different' two colors can look with a third added... not just in design, but seeing the DT samples it's hard to believe they all have the SAME two base colors. Wow. Hugs

[Kristi]

Beautiful! I love the combination of colors you chose and that little flower is so perfect! Hope I get a chance to play this week.

[Linda Callahan]

Perfect Plum?? Perfect! And I love how Crumb Cake anchors everything. And I adore the sweet flower with the tag and brad!

[Sandie Conner]

OH, so pretty! I love that you added Wisteria Wonder. Such a clean crisp look. Great card!

[Dawn Tidd]

Lovely, Margaret! The perfect plum was a great third color. The flowers and the brad with the tag add such great touches!

Very nice; you make the crumb cake so fresh and clean in this card. It doesn't usually feel that way to me. Thanks for sharing it.

[Kitty]

Oh my gosh! I love it. My favorite colors. I love the stamp in the middle.

[Mike]

Margaret, this is stunning! I would have never thought to put purple with two greens but of course t happens in nature all the time and so why not? And you've done it beautifully!

[Patti MacLeith]

I haven't know what to do with that garish green aka Lucky Limeade. Now I can actually visualize a successful combination. Thank you for sharing your inspiration.
