Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Facebook Colour Schemes

 Hi Everybody,

Thanks you to everyone for joining in with Friday Facebook Live and it makes me so happy that many of you like the new collection. Lou gave away some fabulous prizes and one of the questions she asked was "What is your favourite colour scheme?"

There were lots of ideas and some of the colours are fantastic and so I thought it would a good idea to add a card as often as I can using some of the ideas that came in

Please forgive me if I don't add the name of the person who suggested it but I had to write them down quickly, as the show went on, and I only managed to get the choices.

This is the first one and the colours used are 
Red & Gold.
I have used the Oval Elegant Nestables and the Merry Christmas sentiment.

I used the technique of colouring the white card with the ink pad and that has been done in Festive Berries but I also found some parchment that had a gold pattern on it and so I added that to the top also.

I have used the bight gold card as the mat and for the centre of the card and the flowers are from my stash.

I added small pearls to the parchment pattern and glittered up the flowers and words.

In the show I was asked some questions and I didn't get round to answering them so I will do that here

Where do I get my flowers from?   

I got lots of flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts, as the choice was amazing, but then it was sold to another company and now they will not ship to the UK. I am adding the link just in case you are not in the UK and can get a shipment from them   Wild Orchid Crafts  but the price has gone up a lot !!

Another outlet I have used in the past is one I contacted through Facebook and here is the link so you can check that out ...  Samaflora

There is also a small collection of different types and colours at Craft Stash 

What colour is the glitter and where is it from ?

I get my glitter from Glitter Magic   and I usually buy it at the craft shows I visit. This is by far my favourite glitter and I buy the loose packs and tip it all into a container, as that is the best way to buy it. I use it a lot and you an see from the size of my box that I have a lot left. I have added this link to the colour I use and it is called Chameleon

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
