JAI #273: A STAMPIN' UP! COLOUR CHALLENGE

Rochelle has come up with a rather challenging colour challenge for us at Just Add Ink this week! 

Take a look at this combo:



I have to say I love these colours together; I just struggled when it came to teaming a light grey with a browny kraft.  In the end, I was pretty happy with how I managed to incorporate all these colours on a card, though ... I went for what I think is an elegant look.





The washi tape with the little crosses on is retired, but all other Stampin' Up! products used to make this card are listed below.  You can buy them from my online store, by clicking on the thumbnail images. :)

Be sure to check out the gorgeous creations of the rest of the Just Add Ink Design Team.  We would love to see what you come up with , with this colour combination, so please link up your card or scrapbook page to our Just Add Ink blog.
