I was struggling to decide on a colour combo until I found this lovely palette of colours over at The Card Concept.
I've seen other card-makers link to this blog on many occasions but I've never actually visited The Card Concept until now. I have to say that I love what I've found as this is a great little blog with some very talented ladies on the design team.
The DT inspiration comes in a variety of styles CAS, Clean and Graphic, Clean and Layered, Shabby Chic, Freestyle Collage, Classy and Elegant or Mixed Media and you can choose a style for your card from one of these. I guess my card is best described as Clean and Layered as there are a few layers going on here but the overall design is still very simple. I love the colour inspiration as these are colours I would never have chosen without seeing them together.
I was also very taken with this simple request:
'Comment on the card ahead of you and behind you in the linky.'
What a nice way of doing things to guarantee some additional blog traffic for everyone taking part in the challenge. I know this'll be the first of many visits I'll make to this lovely challenge blog and would urge you to take a look if you've not already done so yourself.
I'm also going to link-up over at Kathy's current 30 Day Colouring Challenge. Once again, she's doing an amazing job of bringing us inspiration and colouring fun on a daily basis throughout the month!
