As card makers we use colour to represent particular occasions, such as red and green for Christmas, pastel shades for new babies and bright hues for celebrations. In the photo below, I've coloured one image in four different ways to give you an idea of how we can use colour in a representative way. Of course it helps if the image used is generic, such as this bucket of lollipops, rather than specific to a certain occasion or event.
What do you think of when you see each of these colour combinations?

These are fantastic Beccy, love the colours.
These all look so different. I don't always colour Christmas in red and green but I can see how colouring a non-specific image can be thought of as Christmas by using those colours. I like the different looks of the finished cards even though the designs are similar.
So many holidays and occasions in these 4 cards. These are great.
These are all beautiful and so different, by just changing the colour scheme. xx
Your cards prove once again what colours can do. Same stamp, different colours and the results are totally different! Thanks for sharing Beccy!
Beautiful colors and cards, I like the different colors that can be used for seasonal projects or anytime of the year, hugs, Lori m
I really like these!
Well done and I just images where you can change everything just by coloring them in different colors.....thanks Beccy for a great tip and cards.
Hi Beccy your cards are gorgeous. I love all the colours you have used. Take care. Hugs Jackie
