OLW35: Yellow
Posted: January 8, 2011 Filed under: CAS, Pocket Silhouettes 22 CommentsThis was a stretch for me to pull out the yellow ink at this time of year but Susan’s One Layer Wednesday Challenge at Simplicity this week is to use yellow. I used my favourite SU yellow, Summer Sun, along with Pumpkin Pie and Ruby Red to sponge inside my squares. Then I removed the mask before stamping the plants in black. Although it was hard to create such a colour scheme while it is snowing outside I am happy with the results. Thanks for the challenge, Susan.
Check out the other cards featuring yellow; there is plenty of inspiration to be found. I was definitely inspired to create mine after seeing Kathy’s beautiful card.
Supplies:
Stamps: Pocket Silhouettes
Inks: Basic Black, Pumpkin Pie, Ruby Red, Summer Sun
Cardstock: Flourishes Classic White

What a striking CAS card. Love the shades of yellow. I have these stamps too & would not have thought of using them this way.

Very pretty card. I do love that stamp set, and it looks wonderful with your blended colors. You make yellow look so much better……..than just yellow!
