Mix It Up Monday: Botanical Builder Framelits again!

Thank you to everyone who visited my blog yesterday for the Around the World Blog Hop. I hope you enjoyed seeing the different projects created around the globe using the fabulous new products from the new Spring/Summer catalogue. It goes live tomorrow, which is very exciting!

Meanwhile, It’s Mix It Up Monday again and time for another colour combination from my In Color charts.

And I think it’s confession time. I have to admit that I don’t really like Cucumber Crush. I thought I would, because it’s green and I love green, but it’s just a bit too harsh for me. I made this card yesterday after spending the afternoon playing with Old Olive and Island Indigo. When I switched to Cucumber Crush and Pacific Point for this project, I realised that I felt much more at home with the “duller”, more subdued tones. 

Having said that, I do quite like this card. By putting the emphasis on the Whisper White, the colours can pop without overwhelming, and the Soft Sky keeps them in check.
