Hi all, I have a difficult time with color challenges and this one was definitely tops the list, not only a color challenge there is a sketch challenge and use something recycled.
also with this challenge I wanted to make a light contrasting shadow instead of the normal dark,
I also was getting frustrated looking for 3 buttons to match, you would think with all the buttons I remove from old shirts I would be able to fine a set.....not to be found....then I saw these tiny specks mixed in with the buttons and I found an eye for the bird.
the yellow bead for the eye is recycled
plum, blue (berry), crumb beige, cherry red (optional)
you will find the sketch and color challenge here...

I used Home decor for the bird, wild card for the Hi and George for the circle and a MS punch along with my design studio.

Hey Carol, thanks very much for the comment on my blog, I love your bird,isn't it strange when you need some matching buttons you can't find them.
