There is a way to add depth, dimension and drama using different colour placement techniques and we’ll be diving into how to accomplish this in our blog…
I must admit, I rarely gravitate to a pastel colour palette. In the past, I’ve always chosen a bolder palette and generally one with a lot of contrast! Of late, I am finding pastel palettes far more appealing, so I have been experimenting with pulling threads. For today’s palette, I started with Colour #70. Pastel…
This month we are featuring Colour #46 which is a tropical colour palette which is a blend that effortlessly marries the vibrant hues of turquoise and lemon-lime.
