CD 553 - Hello There

 Welcome to Colour Dare Challenge 553!

This week, there are very specific colours to use with one option. 

I chose to pair dark teal with red and brown. 

The background was stencilled in two shades of brown, gradually getting lighter toward the edges. The floral image was stamped using a set of layering stamps and then die cut. That was added to the brick front and I created a small banner for the sentiment. I didn't have any coordinating cardstock for the background so I used the same ink pad as I did for the stamping and dragged it around a piece of cardstock to create a matching background. Some gold Stickles were added around the image and in the centres of the flowers. 

Come and join us at Colour Dare and show us how you interpret this week's challenge. 

You have two weeks to link up your project. 

We can’t wait to see what you create! 

Enjoy,

Alyson
