Colour Wheel Challenge - Week 5 Split Complimentary Colours

Before Mynnette launches her final challenge of the month I have a few announcements: MMM will be taking a break and having August off, the last challenge will stay open throughout August and the top 3 and overall monthly winner will be announced with the first week of September.
We are also saying a sad goodbye to one of out founder dt members - Suzanne and I would like to thank her for all the time she has spent with us and wish her well for the future - a link will remain for her blog in the side bar so please do continue to visit her and all her amazing creations.
Thank you to my team - this break is because of some personal issues I am experiencing and they have made things so much easier for me to do this - they are all stars - please visit their wonderful blogs and see their amazing creations - over to you Mynnette.

Hello friends and welcome to the fifth and final week of the Make My Monday color wheel challenges.  This week we're focusing on a trio of colors known as SPLIT COMPLIMENTARY COLORS.

 Split complimentary colors are fun to play with.  You start with one color, find its compliment and instead of using the compliment, use the two colors beside the compliment.  Mynnette has chosen the split complimentary color scheme of fuscia, green, and yellow for you to create with this week.  White and cream are your acceptable neutrals again! You may stamp lined images and sentiments in either black or brown, but solid images should be stamped in fuscia, green, and/or yellow.

We have a fabulous monthly sponsor for one lucky participant~

We're back in a fourth week at Make My Monday with a focus on the color wheel!  This week our main focus is on ANALOGOUS COLORS.

 Analogous colors are colors that sit in a group of three right next to each other on the color wheel.  We usually use these combinations when doing monochromatic artwork.  This week we are focusing on blues and Mynnette would like to see creations using turquoise, light blue, and dark blue with white or cream as your neutrals. You may stamp lined images and sentiments in either black or brown, but solid images should be stamped in one of the three blues.

MMM - Mid-week Motivation - Yellow and Purple

Mid-week Motivation is brought to you this week by the colours Yellow and Purple and I have made this quick and easy Easel Card to show you

This is a card that can be made using most nesting dies and a die cutting machine such as a Big Shot or Cuttlebug - all you have to do is make sure that part of the die overlaps the fold of your card then just carry on and make the easel shape as normal. One of my die cuts was put through the Cuttlebug a second time in a Swiss Dots embossing folder. A little bling was added as a finishing touch.
Details of this week's challenge can be found HERE if you want to have a go too.

Colour Wheel Challenge - 3, Complimentary Colours

Hello again!  Welcome to week three in the Make My Monday color wheel challenges!  This week we are focusing on COMPLIMENTARY COLORS, with a chosen color pair to work with.

Complimentary colors are colors that compliment each other.  Hence the name.  They fall across from each other on the color wheel. Since purple and yellow are Mynnette's favorite colors and just happen to be complimentary, she'd like to see some creations using just these two colors plus white or cream. You may stamp lined images and sentiments in either black or brown, but solid images should be stamped in yellow and/or purple.

MMM - Mid-week Motivation - Secondary Colours

Our colours this week are ORANGE, PURPLE AND GREEN - the secondary colours of the Colour Wheel. Not the easiest of combinations to work with however not impossible - take a look at what I have created for you today

My stamp (from the Fresh Vintage set) has been coloured with markers before stamping - I did this too with the sentiment stamp. Card stock is from my stash and the little flowers have been stamped, cut out and they have had a flat backed gem added to their centres.
Ink colours are: Certain Celery, Wisteria Wonder and Peach Parfait.

MMM Colour Wheel Challenge - Week 2

Welcome to week 2 of our month long colour wheel challenges here at Make My Monday.  Thank you to all who shared your gorgeous primary coloured projects with us last week!  In our second week of July, we'd like to see some SECONDARY COLOURS.

 Secondary colors are colors made from combinations of two primary colours.  Orange is made from yellow and red, green is made from yellow and blue, and purple is made from blue and red.  Your challenge this week is to use only these three secondary colours, but white or cream are fine to use as well. You may stamp lined images and sentiments in either black or brown, but solid images should be stamped in secondary colours.
