Happy Saturday!
(Additional neutral colors allowed are: black, white and kraft.)
We had some absolutely amazing entries for the last Cameo Spotlight Challenge – you all are so clever and creative! So I know you’re going to love our next challenge, which is a color challenge! Use the above graphic as your inspiration to create a card or tag and include the use of your Cameo or Silhouette SD in your design.
I was inspired to create a masculine card using these color swatches. I never seem to have enough cards for guys in my stash, so this was my opportunity to change that! I downloaded the Borders – Diamonds cutting file from the Silhouette Online Store and sized it to fit an A2 card front. I cut it out three times with my Cameo – once in the kraft colored image panel, once in a slate blue, and once using a sage green. I inserted the blue diamonds into the kraft image panel, adhered the green diamonds with foam tape, and then adhered the whole image panel to the kraft card base with foam squares. I love the dimension that the negative diamond cut adds when you back it with the cream layer. And who doesn’t love argyle?!! Right?!
