Lindsey is our host for this challenge and she has chosen to Create a Scene. Just remember if you are not a toppings kind of person, just make it a birthday card. |
This is our second challenge for February. It was a lot of fun for me as I decided to up my game a bit.
I recently bought a book to help me make different selections for my color schemes.
I search out this page and decided to make it my color scheme for this card.
Let's see how I did?
A little closer look. Maybe my dark green should be darker. What do you think?

Thanks for stopping by and I always appreciate your comments!
Oh Barb this is just fabulous! LOVE those little birdies and how smart of you to put one on the inside too ... perfect! I would have never put these colors together but they are awesome! I think I might need a 'color bible' ... lol. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThose birdies are so cute. Love how you chose the colors to put together. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah! Those colors are fabulous together! Such a cute "scene" too
ReplyDeleteThat is such a cute winter birthday and especially so with this deep freeze the country is experiencing. Love the colors and image too.
ReplyDeleteI think your darker green is just perfect in this sweet scene! Your birds are adorable.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet, sweet card. It really is pleasing to the eye, and I'm convinced it's because you used your book for color inspiration. I just ordered it on Amazon, thanks for the tip. You have colored those adorable birds perfectly (the green is just fine) and the red background really makes them pop. This card iS FABULOUS!!!
ReplyDeleteYou've aced the colour scheme with this fabulous scene, featuring your adorable birds and pretty hearts! So creative!

I love the lighter green and what a great idea to use a resource for color combinations. Love the added hearts cascading down from above! Take care!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great book to gather inspiration from, clever! Love your color combo and your design! Fab birds, inside and out! ;) I adore their little winter getups! Cozy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a marvelous use of the colors! I think you're already making full use of your color bible! I love the tweet lil' birdies and their cute winter costumes! The red cardbase really makes everything pop up beautifully, not to mention the lovely, sparkly hearts! I'd say 10/10!!
ReplyDeleteOh! That is a great book! And I like your pick! You've created a sweet scene in those bold and dramatic colors! I like the green shade you used more than a darker green!
ReplyDeleteI think I need that bible color book *wink! I think you are spot on and it is a beautiful scene, but for the record, I think all your groupings of colors have been stunning. I love those birds and I especially love the colors you chose!
ReplyDeleteLove your colour scheme Barbara, might have to track that book down so TFS! Your scene with the birds and falling hearts is adorable, love the little bird inside too, the recipient will love this card, Cathy x
ReplyDeleteLove the heart background and your beautifully coloured birds. Such an adorable card.
ReplyDeleteI think I may need that colour book! Gorgeous colourful scene.
