Color Hues #125 Blue and White

 Today we start a new colour duo at the Color Hues Color Challenge. Teammate Carol is our host for this challenge and she chose the colours Blue & White! While thinking about what to use for my card this challenge I decided that I wanted to use the new to me Lawn Fawn Postage Rectangle Stackables from their Valentines release. That's when I decided to make a large stamp for the front of my card.


I cut the second largest postage stamp with some blue cardstock from my stash. I think it might have been from MFT Stamps. It was a lone wolf in my scrap bin. My white dove was cut from a very old die I have from Serendipity Stamps. 


I white embossed the postage amount from the Waffle Flower Postal Collage stamp set and the 'BELIVE" is from Simon Says Stamp Tabbed Sentiments Holiday stamp set.

 



I hope this fun color palette has inspired you to play along!

I am also submitting this to the Inkspirational Challenge Shades of Blue!






Thank you so much for stopping in today!
Happy Weekend!

What a beautiful CAS card, Tracey. The dove really stands out against that bright blue. I may have to CASE this card with a different dove I have in my stash.

It may be simple but it certainly makes a statement. I love that you left the cut pieces inside the wings. Makes for a more interesting design. I really like this! Very classy!

This beautiful dove die is definitely a keeper, Tracey, and couldn't be more perfect for this color pair! I love how the white dove seems to rise from the blue background!
