Hugs - Color Dare #456 "Color Wheel - 2 Colors on Opposite Sides"

Here is my Design Team card for ColorMyHeart Color Dare #456, using 2 Colors on the opposite sides of the Color Wheel (Yellow "Lemon" and Purple "Pansy").  I've seen many beautiful CTMH Butterfly background cards on Facebook so decided to do something with sponging the colors on both the die cut and also the background cardstock using Lemon and Pansy ink pads.  




Sponge, Sponge, Sponge and more Sponge. Adhered the Sponged Butterfly Background die cut to my sponged background and then did a little more sponging on the edges.  On the inside... some more sponging on the inside corner and border with Lemon and Pansy and used a Butterfly Ribbon die for a stencil. Added 3D thin foam tape to the underside near body of each butterfly, bone curled the wings and added liquid glass to the bodies.  Cut Hugs sentiment in both yellow and pansy for shadowing and adhered direct to Butterfly background die cut.

Both challenges are on the side bar of the Color My Heart Color Dare challenge blog. Please check out Design Team Cards and other entrants to give you inspiration and join us for future fun color challenges.
