Fall has begun and we've got the perfect color combo to inspire you for our new Color Challenge (PPA144) at Pals Paper Arts! Join the fun and play along, using More Mustard, Cajun Craze and Early Espresso (or similar colors) to create your card!
I chose to keep my card clean and simple to highlight the cluster of flowers made with punches and brads. I added a few punched leaves, some houndstooth embossing, and linen thread to finish out the card. It really came together quickly and easily! This card could work for any occasion by simply changing out the sentiment. I love it and I hope you do too! If you like my card, please leave me a comment! It's always great to hear from you and I enjoy your feedback!
Need a little more inspiration? See how my fellow PPA Design Team members used this color trio for their creations! I'm sure you'll love their wonderful work! Now it's your turn! Get out those supplies and get busy! I can't wait to see what you create!
