Colour Splash

Good morning!

I'm hosting this week's challenge at City Crafter and I thought a 

Colour Splash Challenge With a Twist would be fun...

The twist is that you can use any one colour as your Splash
The Rules are ... 
Use Black (or Grey) and White as your main colour and choose any ONE colour as your Splash

Here's your inspiration photo


In keeping with the photo I went with Red as my Splash colour and made a set of Thank You cards


I kept them pretty simple using the SU Honeycomb embossing folder and a Memory Box die


... half the set with a grey background and half with a white background


Our Guest Designer this week is Marina - winner of challenge week 193
I'm sure she would be delighted if you hopped over to her blog (My Perfect Life) to say 'hello" and check out her lovely creations

There is a GD spot for our winner this week too ... so come on and link up with us at 
We'd love see your Colour Splash creations


Thanks for stopping by and have a beautiful day

  12. OMG Ros this is such a beautiful take on the challenge. Grey is the new white (at least for me) and I love this set. The touch of red is perfect and adds a lovely touch of warmth. I have that honeycomb folder too and that Memory Box die is on my wishlist. It's modern but also elegant. And looks lovely on your cards.
    Hope you had a great evening with your group. Hope to speak soon (Skype?)
