Colour challenge cards

Good morning friends/bloggers, it's a lovely sunny day here  today. I hope you have sun too! Over at  the 'Less is More' challenge  this week it's a .................................................. Colour Challenge  "This month we would like you to choose TWO opposite  colours from this Colour Wheel" (I will add it at the bottom or otherwise my card won't  show up in posts.)  My first thought was to use 'violet red  and yellow green', but my violet red ink wouldn't stamp very well with my image. I tried instead some violet ink which worked really well. Of course then I had forgotten the colour violet should be teamed with yellow and not  yellow green. Arghhh!! I only realised after I had finished making the card and taken a photo...typical. So I set to  work and made another, this time I couldn't get the image  to stamp cleanly. So after numerous attempts I resorted to making a matted image with one I was happy with. I  added my yellow butterfly, gems and sentiment and job  done.Phew.....and relax.Come and have a closer look  at  my cards. I will show you both versions seeing as I have already taken photo's of them.Rather liking the violet  and green myself but you can choose which looks best.Not  made a card in almost 2 weeks now, so struggling a tad. ps. I am still feeling terrible with this  horrid cold virus and I  am SO glad you can't see me too. I am not a pretty site atm.  believe me lol, my eye is partially closed because of  conjuntivitis. Having not slept again ( awake at 1 ish then  got up at 5am., coughing all night etc. ) I don't have bags  under my eyes now I have mahoosive suitcases! My eye was  glued shut when I woke up so I was stumbling about trying  to find the bathroom looking a very sorry site. Almost  frightened myself when I caught site of my face in the mirror  too.It's all not good people lol.Sorry for the long post now too. pps.Ooops mean't to add.......a very big welcome to all my  latest followers , welcome aboard and thanks for choosing me.
