Changing Up Colors

I'll be leading a card making event at my church this week and was planning on using the same designs from my recent Stamp Camp since the guests will be different and to save some preparation time. However, as always happens there is usually something that forces you to change your plans. Well, the bleach technique was fun on the Baja Breeze/Betsy's Blossom card, but I realized it wasn't practical for a larger setting, so I tried using white craft ink instead on midnight muse and I like the result. Then it was the brads that caused the next change because I didn't have enough of them for the Fabulous Florets card, so this time I tried Smokey Slate, Wisteria Wonder, and Raspberry Ripple color scheme so I could use my Wisteria Wonder brads. I just love how changing up a color scheme brings a whole new flavor to a card design.  What do you think?
