Hello,
It's a lazy Sunday morning here. I've been watching crocheting videos looking for a new project, and I sometimes get lost in the videos, going from one to the next, and then it's two hours wasted.
Yesterday evening I noticed that the new Color Hues challenge was up. Carol is hostess and her color choices are green and white. Great for March, great for shamrocks, but I decided greens would be perfect for these retro bowls, a new-ish set from Concord & 9th. Also, green is my favorite color, so there's that.
I'm using all Concord & 9th card stocks, three green shades and white.
When I pulled out my pack of Lemongrass card stock, I already had this card front die cut. I glued it to a white card base and then cut the bowls and flower dies from white, Avocado and Artichoke. I stacked the flowers x2 for a little extra dimension and also used the alternate green for the centers. The sentiment is from the same set, cut with a banner die from a different C&9th set.
My aunt is turning 92 later this week and so I made this into a birthday card to mail to her. These birthday images are from C&9th too, yet another set.
I hope you have a relaxing Sunday!
Colleen

ReplyDeleteYou have captured the designs of the retro bowls perfectly, Colleen! A great use of these colors! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Color Hues!
ReplyDeleteThese definitely remind me of the old Pyrex/Corning Ware bowls of old. (The vintage ones are really pricey nowadays!) Green is also my favorite color. I adore this! Thanks so much for playing with Color Hues, Colleen!
