CD 605 - Leafy Hugs

 Welcome to Colour Dare Challenge 605!

Choose ONE colour and use black and white. Metallics and neutrals are free to use. 

I chose Turquoise - big surprise! 

The background was created by alternating black and white strips of cardstock around a diamond in the centre. That piece was cut down to fit on a 6x6 card with a border. The leaves were die cut along with a second set in vellum.The vellum was placed under the leaf pieces, slightly offset. The leaves were adhered under a black embossed sentiment. Some clear dew drops were added around the leaves. 

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

You have two weeks to link up your project. 

We can't wait to see what you create!

Enjoy, 

Alyson

You have used one of my favorite colors for this black-and-white challenge, Alyson. I love the boldness of the stripes and the softness of the leaves. Beautiful!
