Blue & Gold

What do you think of when you hear blue & gold? School spirit filled me instantly the minute I saw the color combination for SUO Challenge 393.

My high school colors were blue & gold. Those colors instantly transport me in my memory to high school games, pep rallies, homecoming parades, marching band, etc.

What do blue & gold mean to you?

White card with yellow card front embossed with sunflowers with are then highlighted with navy ink. Mesh ribbon with gold stripes runs across bottom front of card. There is a white sentiment label circle image that says, "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you. John 14:27"

Card Details

I have loved the technique of lightly dragging an ink pad over and embossed image to leave color on the raised embossed parts of the image. This is a perfect color combination to use with the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder.

Crushed Curry paper is a perfect base for the embossed sunflowers Then, Night of Navy ink bringing attention to the raised parts of the embossed image. A perfect blue & gold image.
