Hi there, blog friends! Today starts a new challenge at Addicted to CAS! Raga is our Hostess and she is challenging everyone to create a card using the Code Word ‘Contrast’.
Our Guest Designer is the uber-talented Kuni, and she has created the cutest card for this challenge...check it out here ~
I had a hard time with this code word and eventually considered how bold bright colors work in contrast to black.....
Ah, yes...a rainbow of circles :) I wanted to add dimension to the design, so I used circle punches in various sizes (glad I saved them) and popped some of them up with one or two bits of foam tape. A white embossed sentiment and that was it ~
We would love to see how the code word ‘Contrast’ inspires you! If you would like to see inspiration from my amazing teammates and play along with us, come on over to the ATCAS Challenge Blog and check it out!
Supplies:
Stamps: Papertrey Ink - Keep It Simple: Friendship
Ink: Tim Holtz - Distress Oxide Inks; Versamark
Circle Punches: Martha Stewart
Misc: Hero Arts Detail White EP

ReplyDeleteIf not black and white I love black and bright colors. This is such a great design, Barb, with the arrangement of colored circles pulling you in.
