CD 499 - Diamond Parade

 Welcome to Colour Dare Challenge 499! 

Choose at least three of the colours from the grid - note the colours that are free to use. 

I used all five colours plus white and gold. 

All those diamonds were die cut (each cut leaves five graduated pieces). I mixed and matched the pieces so no diamond had repeating colours and they were all glued onto white diamond bases. The diamonds were arranged on a card front, leaving a white space at the top right. I used two of the individual diamond cuts to layer under the hot foiled sentiment. A floral image was die cut from gold foil and added on top of the diamonds and I placed a small bow at the base of that image. A few gold gems were added and the card front was adhered to blue cardstock and then to the base using craft foam. 

Come and join us at Colour Dare and show us how you use the colours from the grid shown above. 

You have two weeks to link up your project. 

We can’t wait to see what you create! 

Enjoy,

Alyson
