Welcome to the new Colour Creations Blog Share. This week we are looking at Fresh Fig, one of our In Colours. It's not a colour I use often, so I really struggled with ideas for it, until I had a brain wave.
How cool are those hexagons? Can you tell what I used? Here's a hint - they are on special this week!
That's right - I used both Dimensionals and Mini Dimensionals! I simply adhered the Dimensional to some Fresh Fig cardstock and then used my snips to trim around it, peeled off the backing and stuck it in place on my card. Done! It's not my idea - I can remember seeing it years ago but I can't remember who did it.
I used the triangle stamp from Picture Perfect Birthday on the inside, mostly as I don't have a hexagon stamp. Triangles are close, aren't they? LOL
You can find the rest of this week's cards over on Catherine's blog. See you there!
Bye for now,
Tina
What a clever idea Tina and a great card for both men and women! Thanks for hopping along tonight!
ReplyDeleteNow that's just way to old clever, Tina, using dimensionals, and it looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteVery Effective Tina, What a great idea. I love it, Simple but stunning.
ReplyDeleteWell that is rather a lot of snipping! Gives a great effect. I love hexagons. BTW - I always LOVE the insides of your cards too.
ReplyDeleteWow, very effective look Tina. Love the contrast of just the two colours.
ReplyDeleteThat's very cool! You sure do think outside the box (or hexagon …..).
