365 Cards day 164 Colour Scheme


This is the colour scheme for today's card, which set me thinking for quite some time. Finally I came up with this card. I used a die from the Cuttlebug Babyface alphabet set for the buttons and the background paper is from Canon. The sentiment is from MSE mounted on Nesties. The stamped flourish on the paper is an Artemio clear stamp.
I'm still struggling with these glasses, the focus on the computer keyboard is decidedly squiffy! I have an appointment to see the optician tomorrow so I'll have to have a chat about my concerns. They were too expensive to be not right!

    Yah, great card - becuase that colour scheme would have given me huge probs! Good for you! Yep, am probably 15 minutes off the A303 from two junctions, and 3 probably a 5 minute drive from the LSS where i bought my Copics. Happy to let you have details but don't want to turn your blog into a blatant ad for my local shop! Hope you have a good trip!

    What a great idea to use your dies as buttons. They look fab. And, you've manaaged to get them in a straight line despite the glasses! Well done. ikki

    I wasn't going to do this 365Cards challenge because the colors were so funky. But, then your card inspired mine. Thanks for the inspiration!
