Hey there, crafty friends! I was playing around with inks the other day and trying to push myself out of my comfort zone...not the easiest of tasks, but I ended up creating this bright (for me!) orange background using Abandoned Coral, Ripe Persimmon and Wild Honey Distress Oxides...
(It is actually blended better than in the photo, honest!)...I then sat looking at it wondering what the heck I was supposed to do now?! A day or so later, whilst scrolling through the old Facebook, I was totally blown away and inspired when I saw Sandi MacIver's fabulous card in similar colour tones...
...and this is what I came up with...
I used a really old Sizzix Bigz frame die and went with lots of white elements, like Sandi's creation...I was also inspired by the lovely Denise (The Crafty Den) and used vellum behind both the butterflies and sentiment dies...
I still found it a challenge to work with brighter colour tones, but it's always good to push yourself outside of the box and have a go!
Dies used -
Thanks for dropping by to have a look at my orange daisy creation and I hope I've inspired you to maybe try something outside of your comfort zone...who knows, you may even like it!
Crafty hugs,
