Color Challenge #41

Wow, it is already December! I wanted to do a color combo that felt cozy and I wanted to use Sorbet. It's one of my favorite colors and I have yet to really utilize it. To play use at least 3 of the colors and send me a link to your artwork so I can post it here. Have fun with the combo!

Sorbet
Crystal Blue
Twilight
Creme Brulee
Supplies: Gratitude, Spot on Backgrounds, and Cottage Floral Stamp Sets, Chipboard Letters, Sorbet Ribbon, Fresh Cuts Chipboard, Twilight brads, and Cardstock all by CTMH; Big Brads by American Crafts; H and E Chipboard Letters by Rusty Pickle

I wanted to do something other than a card this time around and just wasn't feeling in the mood to make a layout. I don't often make fun things like this but I thought, why not? lol The blues and yellow match my MILs furnishings so this will probably be gifted to her ^_~ I want to make one for me now though, hehehe. The squares are simple 4x4. This was actually really easy to make and was inspired by the big hanging in the fall keynotes. Here are some close ups to show more detail:

It's got a bit of dimension:
Even though the crystal blue came out funny in this picture (my lighting in that corner is not too good), this picture really shows the fun dimension in this project. It also shows the ribbon's color a little better, it came out super bright with the flash, lol. Anyway, I want to thank all of you that have been playing in the color challenges with me! It keeps me motivated to continue to host them :D Hope you enjoy the colors and have a fantastic Monday!

    What a wonderful color combo, Marjorie! I think I may get to start playing along now that I've made some headway with my layouts. Where do I post my cards~here or just on my blog?

    Love the colors. I might have to play along. I like how you added the tiny brads to the center of the flowers.
