Color Dare #37

This week's Color Dare colors were so fun, although I'm not sure, looking at this card, that you'd say I played by the rules! Except for the Copic-colored image, you can barely see the colors, and even then, I think it might look like More Mustard rather than Creamy Caramel (along with Always Artichoke, Elegant Eggplant, and Pumpkin Pie for which I had to substitute Tangerine Tango). I am hoping to get a better picture when the sun comes up in the morning! Today was gray and overcast and it was late when this photo was taken!

This designer paper for my card is from My Mind's Eye, The Spider's Web collection. I really wanted to pair this black cat with the witch in Our Craft Lounge's set, Holiday Cruiser...I went with a 5.5 inch square card to try to show as much of the print as possible. It probably would have been better if I had cut out my image...if you look really hard you will see layers of Artichoke and Eggplant under there! The beautiful antique gold silk ribbon was a perfect match for this paper and I just love the way bows come out when you tie them using this ribbon and the Bow Easy!

Visit the Color Dare blog for more inspiration, and then link your creation when you've finished! We'd love to see!
