Color Hues Challenge #135

Hello friends.  Time for another Color Hues Challenge and our wonderful hostess Carol would like to see us use the color pairing of YELLOW & BLACK. 




And here's what I came up with...


I know, I know...I used more gray than black, but I just really love the way this one turned out, and gray is a hue of black, so I'm calling it good!  I used SSS's Elegant Rose stencil with PFS's shades of yellow ink and gray for the leaves.  I cut off the bottom 3rd of the panel with The Greetery's Snowhill Dies and then attached with foam to a background that I stamped with SSS's Nature in Bloom background stamp.


I finished with a strip sentiment (white embossed on black) from Gina K's All At Once Greetings and a few clear gems from PFS.  

The DT and our Special GD's Barbara & Diana all have wonderful inspiration for you that you can find right HERE, so check it all out and then play along with us...we'd love to see YOU in our gallery!!  This challenge is open till Monday, June 29th @ 9:00AM.
 

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

This is just lovely, Marcia! Reminds me of the yellow knock out roses I have blooming in my backyard right now. Love what the little dots and text along the bottom add to the design!

One of my favorite color combos. This is fabulous. Love the cut off with the text below and the white embossed sentiment.

Okay, you MUST KNOW that I'm not one bit mad about your use of gray, right? Ha! IT IS PERFECTION, Marcia!! [I might need to stamp a few panels of the SSS bg stamp!]
Soooo pretty!

OMGosh, this is so incredibly gorgeous! Yellow roses are my favorite. The curved lower edge and text stamp add a whole lot of extra beauty to your card. Really lovely use of these colors, Marcia!

This is absolutely stunning, Marcia! What a gorgeous yellow rose, which looks fantastic with the leaves done in gray/black. I especially like the text on the bottom. Such a beautiful card using these colors.

Your rose is BEAUTIFUL, Marcia! You inspire me to keep trying with the stencils but I'm not sure I'll ever be able to get such a crisp and detailed result! The shading is perfect too! Awesome card, my friend!

Bobby said...

Such a gorgeous yellow rose, Marcia. I may need to check out those inks. I want a softer yellow ink. I love the design with the cut panel and background stamp. Beautiful card, my friend.

This is just gorgeous, Marcia. I love that rose, but the addition of the words on the background stamp kicks it up a notch as does that bit of piercing at the bottom of the rose. Such a beautiful pairing of colors and you used it beautifully!
