    Default Scrappy Dresden Plate update & ?

    I have been working on this little project all day and want suggestions as to what color background you would like to see them on?

    I got six plates from the scraps.

    Very cute - what about that pale teal that is in the scraps? That's the color on my screen so I hope it matches in real life...lol.

    They are just beautiful! I'm not good at picking colors without auditioning them actually next to the blocks but I would lean toward a very pale yellow or white or cream. Whatever makes them pop!

    Your Dresdens are darn cute! I think I would see how they look on cream or pale yellow/green.

    I like your Dresden's, I would go black or a very dark brown, all your colors including the very lights will really stand out
