Shades of Donuts....

Morning LIMettes.. so it's Saturday once again and you all know what that means... Another challenge at Less Is More.  As it's the first week of the month it's a colour challenge and this week we have some inspiration for you to take the colours from... It's a delicious combo..  We just love it!


donut dreams

Here are my cards for this week...


The first of my cards uses a selection of pink petticoat papers and one of the new sentiments. I'm not a huge orange fan but I really love this colour combo.  The butterfly is a punch from Stampin Up.

Inspiration: CAS(e) this Sketch: #17


And for my second card...


For my second card I used much bolder shades by using stampin up markers, and used a stamp set from CAS-ual fridays.  the sentiment strip was supposed to be stitched but the thread came out of the needle so it's piercing for a second week.


I can't wait to see what you come up with...

Your first card makes me think of ice-cream more than doughnuts!! Love the mix of patterns Jen and the richer tones look pretty on your second card.
This is a tricky colour combo for me this week :0)
