Pink Elephant Pink, Green, Yellow & Mojo Monday #82


I sometimes find colour challenges a little difficult, especially if the colours designated are not those that I would naturally choose for myself. Green is one of them, and is one of the colours from The Pink Elephant this week, together with yellow and pink.

The sketch is another from Mojo Monday. The Paper is Anita's and the little butterfly is from a Cuttlebug die. The tulips are Stampabilities and the sentiment from Hobby Art.
I find it difficult to find a decent place to take pictures of my cards, especially in the afternoons when the sun is at the front of the house, as we have leaded light windows which cast shadows across my cards... tricky! I could do with one of those mini photo studio jobbies like Sarita!

    The colours look brill - it's good how these challenges make you think and use things/colours that you would not have looked at before. Your punch is envyable!!!! ikki

    A lovely card. The colour combination works really well I think and I see you are another proud possessor of a Martha Stewart border punch!

    Gorgeous Chrissie, and still delicate even if out of your comfort zone! I love it!

    I think your photos are great, I know what you mean about non sunny afternoons. I have one of those photo cubes and my pics seem to look worse when I use it. I could really do with some lessons.
