CutCardStock color blocking idea

Hello everyone – I have a fun technique to share with you today with the CutCardStock color blocking idea.
When you have bright fun colors to play with you want to find a technique that will show them off. Using them as a background with a silhouette is a perfect way to let the colors shine.
Today’s Project
The bright pink and blue shapes were perfect for the black die cuts. The black lets the colors pop.

Using shapes adds interest to the die cuts and is pleasing to the eye. You can use any shapes you want. I think this would look great with a large triangle in the back.
