Each Friday I post a color challenge here on my blog. It’s just a fun tool to help you get your creative on. I try to pick colors from our new In Colors and mix them up with colors from our perminent collection. Today I am using 2 colors from this year’s In Colors, Pineapple Punch and Lovely Lipstick. I’m matching them up with our neutral color, Basic Grey.
For my card, I decide on the Petal Pallet stamp set. It is one of my favorites.
Card Details
- Card base is 7 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ and scored at 4 1/4″
- Stamp roses and bird on watercolor paper in Basic Grey
- Use Aqua Painter to pain bird in Pineapple Punch, the roses in Lovely Lipstick and the leaves in Pear Pizzaz
- Use the Big Shot to cut out watercolor images
- Cut out leafy branches in Pear Pizzaz cardstock
- Cut out trellis from Basic Grey DSP Animal Expeditions
- Use a sponge dauber in Basic Grey and sponge over lattice mask on cardbase front
- Stamp “Thank You” on Whisper White cardstock and cut out with Big Shot
- Use Stampin Dimensionals on roses and sentiment
- layer trellis, leafy branches and roses so they hang over the edge of card base front
- Attach bird and sentiment
