Orange Blooms

Every now and then I like to step outside my comfort zone and work with something I don't generally use - in this case, it's the colour orange. For some reason, it's not a colour I gravitate to, whether in pens and pencils or papers and embellishments.


I'd love to hear if there are colours you avoid.
Do you ever step outside your comfort zone, and if so, have you been surprised by the results?

Hi Beccy this is a gorgeous card. I love it. Those flowers look so pretty in orange. I don't really have any colours that I avoid. Take care. Hugs Jackie

I love this Beccy - but then yellow and orange are my favourite colours. I tend to be relatively adventurous with colour schemes but do occasionally step outside my comfort zone with techniques and card folds. Your tutorials have helped me to step outside my comfort zone with card folds.

Ditto Becky on colours I don’t chose, it’s orange... nought else just orange!

And yet my aunt loved it so when made her a card out it came and I like it.. don’t love it but like it so that’s a plus.. and yes looks really great on your card. And orange makes a sunset, funny aren’t we?!

Thanks for Sharing, God bless and keep you safe, and all those you love, hugs Shaz in Oz.x

Love the card and the orange flowers are great! I am like Suze in that I don't shy away from colors, but card folds and different techniques take me more out of my comfort zone. Again. I love the flowers in orange!

Great looking card and the orange is perfect with the image...
I shy away from all tone of BROWN but it is funny I have lots of brown tone of paper and card stock...
