Paint Chip Butterflies

Post by katymjo »

I can't resist these shade-card samples. You get six shades of the featured colour on each swatch. They all have fabulous names too, like Martian Skies!
I made these for summer birthdays with the Swiss Dots embossing folder and my one-and-only edge punch.

Those are terrific! The color gradients are perfect for a repeat of the butterfly die!

Thankyou for your kind comments. I saw a similar idea on Pinterest, and I've been thinking that the the same format could look good with dark blue snowflakes and a bit of sparkle.

Love them Kathryn! What a great way to use paint chips. May have to steal, umm, borrow your idea.

Go ahead, Cheryl! I'll bet you've got more ideas too. I'm wondering how often I can saunter down the paint aisle at Homebase and collect a few chips!
