Colour Blocking a Card with Catherine Pooler & Ellen Hutson Blog Hop & Giveaway + Video!

Have you ever tried mixing up fun bright colours together?  Colour blocking is one fun way to do just that, and I have a video sharing that today….   but first, did you know that today we are celebrating the Ellen Hutson & Catherine Pooler Designs Hop and if you are joining the fun you should have arrived here from JULIE’s Brilliant Blog!

This is definitely Andy Warhol inspired and the skates from Let the Good Times Roll brought back many memories…..  probably of bruises lol.

Colour Blocking - Catherine Pooler - Ellen Hutson - Therese Calvird (card video) 1And yes, adding the Totally Rad Paper really added to the retro feel.  I used the Essentials Squares to create my blocks of colour.

  6. Wow Therese, this card is fabulous! The mix & match colours of the inks & papers is such a good idea Catherine had. Having the little frame around each of the squares in another colour is super too. I’m going to have to try colour blocking soon. Thanks for the great video.
