This is quite a different direction for me in terms of color. Although I love bright colors, like the Melon Mambo that I used here, I don't usually use colors so diverse on the same card. I'm not 100% sure that I like this particular card, but I feel like I was adventurous anyway.
I started out making this card all about the rich razzleberry and melon mambo. Then I decided that it wasn't exciting enough. This morning as I was getting ready for work, I stopped by my desk and took a look at my work in progress. I didn't really like what I saw. It was too boring. Then all of a sudden, I thought that some crushed curry would liven things up. I couldn't wait until I got home from work tonight to try it out.
This is the finished product. I had a hard time settling on the green on the bottom. I waffled for a time between old olive and wild wasabi. I settled ultimately on old olive (thanks in part to the Way Cool SU Color Combo Machine that you can find in my sidebar). And I can't forget to say "thanks" to Karen and her Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge for providing the layout.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have time to stamp today!
