Thanks, @jo.on.the.go for hosting!

Wow @AndromedasWitchery ! I never would have guessed this was a new color palette for you! They're all so well done! Love the tree card! The way you highlighted the trees with white really makes them pop! It feels so peaceful and also mesmerizing!

Ah! They're a mix of tones I really love, and already used, but always adding green, yelllow or other in a more "invasive" and complementary way... Admit I never thought to limit the palette to only 5 tones as suggested here! Soooo much fun!

Here are cards I made for my swap: two are real things (the fuchsia plant and callicarpa berries), one is fantasy (the purple butterfly) and one is an abstract. Please use your imagination when making cards!

View attachment 801836 Fuchsia "Dark Eyes" plant. This plant is especially attractive to hummingbirds and bees.

View attachment 801837 Callicarpa Berries (Callicarpa americana). Native to southeast and south central states of US

View attachment 801838 Purple Butterfly. The purple butterfly symbolizes royalty, luxury, spirituality and mysticism.

these are beautiful. so you painted the value chart on the back of each of these cards?

I didn’t do anything special on the back of my cards - just the usual: user name, real name, location, swap title, date.
Now when I use a Color Cube palette to make cards to put in my Available Gallery I identify the Color Cube number on the back of my cards but I don’t specify the colors by name. Maybe I should.

Welcome to the group. Until I created the swap nobody else had made cards using a particular Color Cube palette, including myself.

Lurking!

June - your cards arrived yesterday. Thanks so much for joining.

Lurking... been a few years, but this looks interesting. I'll see what I can pull together and get back to you, if I may.

Wonderful cards Kay! I especially adore the rainy one. It’s so moody, perfect for these colors, and the way you rendered the rain looks so cool.

 

[jo.on.the.go]

Excellent cards, kay. I'll be on the lookout for them.

 

[FlyingPhoenix]

If these will work, please add me. Thank you!

my cards are on their way today - I used my Distress Oxides for the first 3 cards and matched their colours to the Distress Spritz for my 4th card (so the sky has a beautiful shimmer in real life)
the bottom corner is 'Black soot' not green

 

[Maxtastic]

Beautiful cards @Donnacr ! Love the goose and it's reflection as well as those fish!

Its so cool seeing how everyone navigated the colors in different mediums!
