It's the first of the month which means we have a new color combination on the Color Hues challenge blog. This fortnight we'd like to see cards using the hues of Tangerine and Violet.
This netting is an unused element from a previous project so I decided to put it to good use here by adding it to what would be nontraditional beachy colors. I did some ink blending with Oxides to create the background and adhered the net at a diagonal. I plopped a messy nest of gold thread beneath a die cut sand dollar, which I popped up with some foam tape. I stamped my sentiment onto a narrow tag and added some gold bling to finish it off.

I invite you to join us over at the Color Hues blog where you'll see many wonderful and varied card designs using our new combination of tangerine and purple.
As always, thanks so much for spending a bit of your day with me!
