Lemon Lime, But No Twist

Hi!

Welcome to the new Colour Creations Blog Share for this week.

This week we are looking at Lemon Lime Twist - a colour that I originally thought 'OMG, what are they thinking???', but have since come to love! It's such a bright, fresh colour.

I've been pondering over this card for the past 2 weeks or so. It's my first 'post Orlando trip' card, but I've been thinking about it on and off while I was away. I knew I'd be jet lagged, so I wanted a simple card that wouldn't take too much brain power to put together, but still looked fabulous. Hence, the 'Lemon Lime, but no Twist' title of my post, LOL.

The basic design was set pretty much from the start - the LLT stripes on a Basic Black card with the BB die cut. I liked the boldness of the colours and simplicity of the design.

I worried that it was a little too simple though, so I added the fussy cut balloons from the Broadway Bound SDSP pack (which is also where the striped DSP came from). Overall, I was pleased!

Oooh, did you notice that the inside contains a little sneak peek? The cupcake was also fussy cut from the Broadway Bound SDSP, but the sentiment is from a stamp set from the upcoming Occasions Catalogue called Amazing Life. It's a really fun birthday set.

As always, you can find the rest of this week's cards over at Catherine's blog. I can't wait to see what everyone has made!

Bye for now,

Tina
