Spooky Sweets for #GDP157

September 29, 2018 Filed Under: Gallery, Project Gallery

Spooky Treats, #GDP157

I have entered once already this week for the Global Design Project Challenge, #GDP157.  But I kept seeing all these untraditional and light colors being used for Halloween cards, so I thought, “why not try it in the Challenge colors? I love the color combination and it kind of works for “untraditional” Halloween colors.  And I love the Spooky Treats stamp set, so why not give it another try?

#GDP157 Color Challenge

I tried the card out using the Mint Macaron as the “sky”, but that did not work at all.  The Grapefruit Grove was the way to go for a Halloween Sky. Everything was easy after that and I managed to use only the Challenge colors in inks, ribbons and paper!  Usually there is a compromise here and there for black ink or Very Vanilla paper, but this card uses only the three colors of the challenge in paper, embellishments and ink!

      Thank you, Jayne. I have to credit a lot of Pinterest ideas for the inspiration to try “non-Halloween” colors!!!
