Mellow Yellow

 Morning!  We are up to Y for today's Alphabet Challenge and I have chosen 'Y for Yellow'.  Now this is a challenge for me as Yellow is probably my least favourite colour.  I get that it's bright and cheerful but if I wear it near my face I look washed out and ill.  As this is the case I've left my card very simple with just a little yellow detail.


I'm stash busting again with my image.  It's one I've had printed for ages and is no longer available as Digistamp Boutique is now closed.
I cut a frame in a square and then cut another frame from my yellow paper and mounted the image behind both.  There's a bit of shimmer to the flower centres but, other than that, I thought I would let the image do the work.

Please pop over and join in the fun otherwise I won't have anything to judge.  Go on, convince me that yellow is a colour to use more often.

Thanks for reading.

Love Dawn x

    1. Thank you Debbie. I am getting used to things a bit but visiting mum is emotional, as you would expect. Take care my friend. Love Dawn x

  3. Hi Dawn! So glad you prompted me to use YELLOW! It's always been a finicky color for me as well - it's always either too orange-y or lime-y! However, I think you got it exactly right with this design! I love the CAS layout and the way you used the pattern paper. You've been in my prayers and thankful you have been able to have some creative time again! It's a great healer.
