Spring Card Making with a Vibrant Color Palette:
Exploring the Color Palette
Picture this: a dark purple reminiscent of freshly bloomed violets, a lighter pink as delicate as cherry blossoms, a deeper pink with all the warmth of a spring sunset, a cheerful yellow like daffodils dancing in the breeze, and a blue-gray that captures the calm serenity of a clear spring morning. Can you feel the inspiration washing over you? These colors aren't just shades on a palette; they're invitations to create something truly magical.
I remember the first time I stumbled upon this color combination. I was out for a walk in the park, and the sight of the flowers in full bloom took my breath away. I knew right then and there that I had to capture that beauty on paper, and thus began my love affair with this vibrant spring palette.
