Our challenge this week is bringing colors from our Close To My Heart Sweet Memories Paper Pack. The beautiful soft colors can create all kinds of looks. Let's put it to work and see what inspires us in our creations! Ready.......go!
We reference Close To My Heart colors but you can use any brand as long as you can make a very close match. Kind of close doesn't count. Make any paper craft you like. When you're ready to join our challenge click here to go directly to Color Dare #583. See the graphic below for the rules of our challenge.
I love these colors and love creating with them over and over and over. For this challenge I kept it simple and used scraps from my other project with this paper. Using 1/2" strips I wove them a bit and left the tails longer. After creating the woven prat I just tore the other end to get the length I wanted. It also adds a nice detail to the design.
The flower and leaves come from our Sweet Memories Digital Art Collection. Using my Cricut machine I had cut a bunch of the items for another project so again I'm using extra pieces up. The flower is popped up on some foam tape. The Dots add a nice touch to bring the colors together. See below for a list of products I used.
