Here we are with another Colour Creations Blog Share. I've lost track of the week number, but I've managed to play along every week now - Im happy with that! This week we are focussed on one of my very favourite neutrals - Crumb Cake. Is it a colour that you use lots?
I can't remember why I was flicking through the catalogue, but a card on page 139 caught my eye. I'm sure you will work out which one when you have a look. I don't have the Eastern Beauty suite, so I decided to substitute with other stuff from my stash. I was a bit stumped on what to use for the window part until I came across the piece of Crumb Cake I used on my card. I'd cut it ages ago and not used it. Once I trimmed it for the front it was perfect!
I went for some lovely bright colours for the flower and leaves - Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape and Crumb Cake for the flower and Lemon Line Twist with Granny Apple Green for the leaves. The epoxy dots I used on the front are retired, but you'll soon be able to purchase something similar from the Holiday Catalogue 😉
The flower on the inside was my first attempt. I used Early Espresso on the centre, but thought it turned out too dark. Instead of wasting the effort, I popped it on the inside!
Why not pop on over to Catherine's blog, where you can see the rest of this week's Crumb Cake cards? You can bet I will!
Bye for now,
Tina
