Hoo Hoo Hoo Who Loves You

Anything but red, white, pink and hearts. That was the motivation for this card, designed as one of six make-n-takes we’re doing for an event this month.

Most of the other projects we created used a traditional Valentine’s Day palette, filled with swirls and hearts and flourishes. So, it was time for a change. Pink and chocolate brown go so well together in candy, it’s only natural they would also be a great color combination for a holiday that revolves around sweets.
