Yeah it's Hump day! Hello everyone, I have a fun challenge for you this week. Create a card using colors that are opposite one another on the color wheel or called Complementary colors. I have attached a link that describes the use of complementary colors and uses pictures of decor that illustrate the appeal.

So this week create a card using either Purple and yellow, or Red and Green or Blue and orange or shades of those colors. Let's see what you come up with. For my example I created a box card of purple berries and yellow bees.

I hope you get a chance to play this week and I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Love your bold card. Bold is a perfect look for a complimentary color scheme! (And I bet that our art-teacher friend Marilyn will love seeing this challenge.)

Barry, you are certainly into 3D projects right now. Love your box card with those beautiful flying bees.

This will be a fun one to try. It is definitely going to take some thought, however.

It's true, I am sort of themeing myself to do 3D projects this year. Not that I am giving up the traditional 2D just pushing myself to do some interesting folds and branching out and practicing those different techniques.

Love, love, love your box card Barry! Fun challenge too!

I'm in the process of downsizing a 4 bedroom house to a 2 bedroom condo. We are moving to CA. Eventually my craft room will be packed up. So it is going to be awhile before I'm set up and back to crafting. But meanwhile, I have been enjoying viewing everyone's cards on the challenges each week and cheering everyone on. I'm missing out on some fun challenges though....like this one!

So sad that you won't be doing any crafting but sounds like an exciting time for you. Best wishes and hope this is a wonderful move for you with lots of new adventures!
