CD 659 - Celebrate Leaves

 Welcome to Colour Dare Challenge 659!

Every year, I dread the challenge for this design team that comes up for the first week of July. July 4 is Independence Day in the US so it is always a red and blue colour scheme. It's so difficult to make something with those colours that doesn't look US patriotic, especially for those of us who live in a different country. 

This time, I added gold to my design. I stencilled the leaves and used a gold paste for the veins. I also splattered gold paint on the card front. The sentiment was die cut and stacked three times before being added to a vellum shadow. The card front was adhered to a dark blue card base. 

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
