Bold HELLO for Color Hues #70

 It's time for another duo at Color Hues and for this fortnight Stef has chosen red and yellow for us! A wonderful bright set of colors to pair and use at the end of summer. I went bold and bright with my card. You may need your shades, lol!




I really had fun putting this together using some new and some older supplies. I'm loving the Concord & 9th Markered Messages Dies and the Markered Turnabout Stamp set. Pulling out the cute pup from the Wish Happiness set (Colorado Craft Company) I added a bit of color and whimsy to the card as if he was painting the note.

My stripes are from PTI papers. The yellow was hard to photograph, hope you don't mind. IRL it's not quite so florescent-looking.

Joining us today, please welcome our guest designer Annette, and be sure to check out the gallery! We hope you will play along too. 

Be yourself

          Have delight in your craft 

               Make something beautiful!  

Playing the challenge at NBUS as the stamps and dies are brand new!

I love bold greetings on a card and this one is terrific, Cindy! The cute pup looks pleased with his work. LOL Awesome and creative use of the colors!

Oh, my gosh, I love the big hello... and the pup, of course. It's so cute that he's painting the message. What a darling, happy card! I've had that problem with yellow, too. My laptop sort of dulls colors anyway, so it looks fine here. It would be brighter on my phone or the desktop. I do adore your card, Cindy!

Cindy, this is such a fantastic design! Adding the pup for that touch of whimsey was brilliant and tied everything together beautifully! The graphic sentiment and bold stripes just seem to go perfectly with this color combo. Love this card to pieces!

I agree: the Markered collection is a ton of fun and works so well with a variety of colours, as you've clearly shown here with your bright, cheery card. The pup is a cute special touch.
