Colour Me......Playful! #48

Tis the Wednesday before Thanksgiving here in the US and many are busy cooking and cleaning getting ready for the big day which centers around food and family. Gotta love that! 

But its also time for a new Colour Me.....Playful! challenge  and this week we are using the fun combination of elegant eggplant, perfect plum, coastal cabana, and rose red.  Of course, you are welcome to create anything with these colors and add in neutrals such as black, gray, white, kraft, and vanilla.

In honor of our Thanksgiving holiday, I created a fun pocket thank you tag using the Lil Inkers Folding Tag die which I used with some pretty patterned pink paper. 


I tucked in a rounded tag in PTI Plum Pudding in an secured the edge of the pocket with scor-tape. A gift card could fit nicely in there too. Sorry for the bad shadows in the photo...not getting a lot of good sun today. 


I added a layered butterfly (Royal Velvet and Plum Pudding) embellished with three purple pearls along with a little tag tucked underneath. Sentiment is from Thank You Kindly. Finished the tag off with some Hawaiian Shores ribbon to match the tag.

Hope you are inspired to create something great with this pretty and unusual color combination. Check out what our design team has done with it -

And our lovely featured designer for November...Anita!

Hope to see you in the gallery and have a wonderful weekend!

  4. Such a beautiful tag, looks stunning in these colours too. The little pop of white from the patterned paper really makes it. I'm certainly going to remember this combo in the future, it's fab. Thanks for making me feel so welcome on your team this last month, I've had a great time :) Hugs x
