The bright colors in this week's Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger from Merimekko reminded me of the vibrant colors and patterns in the new DeLovely line from Cosmo Cricket.
I used this week's CardPatterns Sketch. I loved how the patterns from the 12" papers fit inside the 7/8" square punch and how the colors pop against the black background.
I added a few touches of A Muse bling to the centers of some of my panels, and a smaller punched square in the bottom right corner to finish my 4 1/4" card design.
The patchwork design of the sketch also reminded me of the Passion for Patchwork Challenge from the Chicken Soup blog. I think I could sit and play with little squares of paper all day. I love combining the patterns and colors into a striking grid design.
Love this one Steff.. the bright colours are awesome together like that.
