I hope you are well. The Sun is shining and it's a beautiful day here in West Yorkshire, I hope you all have a snippet of sunshine too.
Today I have entered a challenge over on Just Add Ink. Now, I'll be honest, these colours really are not my usual colours, so I was glad when this came up as it definitely pushed me out of my comfort zone.
The Challenge is to use Pool Party, So Saffron, Highland Heather & Crumb Cake - which I thought would be a perfect colour palette for today's card.
Measurements
So Saffron Cardstock
1pc - 5 7/8" x 8 1/4", scored at 4 1/8"
Whisper White Cardstock
2pc - 5 1/4" x 3 1/2"
Pool Party Cardstock
1pc - 5 1/2" x 3 3/4"
Crumb Cake, Whisper White and Highland Heather scraps
Stamp three flower pots onto some scraps of crumb cake cardstock and fussy cut out. stamp a selection of the flowers, 9 in total from Basket of Blooms and them cut out using the small bloom punch. Add a rhinestone to each of the flower centres.
Fold the So Saffron Cardstock along the score line to create the card base, add the Pool Party Cardstock to the card front and a piece of the whisper white to the inside.
On the remaining piece of whisper white, stamp the sentiment at the top in crumb cake ink - I used this really sweet sentiment from All Things Fabulous. Now glue this down into the card front.
Add the flower pots along the bottom, spacing evenly. Now carefully lift up the petal on the flowers and add three to eqch pot.
The stamp sets and punches, along with clever colour layering made this card look super pretty and super quick time.
