For some reason, I seem to gravitate towards colour challenges that will REALLY challenge me. This time it's lilac and mint from Colour Hues. I don't have any trouble with the darker purples and greens but this pastel combo is challenging! Used some Distress Oxides to make a smooshed watercolour background, and then stayed CAS with the rest ... hope you like it.
Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a great day. I appreciate your comments.

ReplyDeleteI am not big on pastels either Glenda. I much prefer the richer hues. I commend you on taking on a true challenge. This is just beautiful. Love the watercolored background. Thanks so much for playing with us at Color Hues.
