Color Dare #582 - Triple Play

This is my Design Team project for ColorMyHeart Color Dare #582 "Triple Play"

This was not an easy color board for me to create a project.  I went in all directions and had no idea what to select to use all three colors... so walked away, came back and started going through my stamps and die cuts again for inspiration. I was disappointed in my inventory of patterned papers because it was very limited with a combo of these colors so decided on a patterned paper in neutral to soften the bold colors, bordered with Bluebird cardstock and adhered to card base, at least that was a start. 

After a couple more attemps finally selected this butterfly (naturally in all three colors), then went with several triple cuts of flowers and leaves and what wasn't used went in my stash, maybe for another time. Here are my final cuts using primarily cardstock for the three must use colors.  Some of the cuts were raised with 3D thin foam tape for dimension and others adhered direct to card stock with some of the leaves and butterfly wings lifted and curled up. 






Please hop on over and join us at Color Dare's Color Board #582 "Triple Play" and check out the Design Teams inspiration, and then let us see what you create... hope to see you there.
