OTWC #34

Kim chose some great colors this week at Off the Wall Craftiness.  Here is her color inspiration:

Isn't it pretty?  I did have a slight problem with it.  To me, it looks a bit yellow, but Kim called it peach.  So, do I use yellow or do I use peach?  The design team's examples showed both, so I chose peach.  (I think I'll make another card with yellow!)  Here's what I came up with:

I have not used Wreath for All Seasons like I thought I would and have been struggling with liking anything I made with it.  After asking for some advice from some PTI Forum friends, I decided that matting the wreath is a good way to go.  I like the way it turned out.

Here's the inside:


 I know I said I was going to get some scrapbooking done, but cards are so much faster.  I usually scrapbook "in my head" for a few days and then put the layout together.  I need to start thinking about my next layout. Until then, it's cards for me!

Thanks for looking!

I think your color choice is perfect......I think challenges are just that and how YOU interpret them.....In this case, the colors. You know what? I immediately reached for my summer sunrise buttons to start this challenge. My ss buttons look way more like a peach color than ss. I love that wreath and your placement of the buttons! Thanks for playing along with us at OTWC this week!

This is gorgeous Lee Anne! I love how you used the wreath. I have that set too and have found I'm not using it as much as I thought either. Thanks for playing along this week at OTWC.
