Hello Friends! It is that time again...Five on Friday! This week is all about color and you'll get to see today's color combo in action.
Our palette:
The Very Vanilla, Pink Pirouette, Blushing Bride, Melon Mambo, and Gold is a palette with bold sophistication (at least I think so).
When it comes to creating five color combos, I generally look to nature for inspiration...a picture of our flower garden, the bright turquoise truck sitting in a parking lot with beautiful fall colors all around. Sometimes, though not always a neutral color or two can be found along side the other hues.
Other times my color combos come from grabbing pieces of cardstock and laying them out until I find a combo that speaks to me. For the project I am about to share, I worked with a photograph a friend sent to me and pieces of cardstock to find just the right mix of colors.
Here's the special project that showcases this color combination:
For those who don't speak French, "Je t'aime" means "I love you" -- a perfect sentiment with Valentine's Day less than a month away.
This banner was a custom project for a friend of mine. She saw a similar banner at Anthropologie for $48...I made this one for a fraction of that! The gold tassels were the most challenging part and took several tries to get just right. Details will follow next week with all my tips and tricks behind the creation of this banner!
What will you make with this color combo?
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a fabulous day!
