Graceful Tiles Hand Coloured Happy Birthday Card. Creative Colour Challenges - #CCC38

 Good Morning Everyone

Happy Monday - I hope you have had a wonderful weekend and are ready to take on a new week.

I'm here, as usual to share the Brand New Colour Combination over on Creative Colour Challenges. This week's colours are fabulous - I really like these together and I have used the Graceful Tiles stamp set and my Stampin Blends in all three colours to create a really great Birthday Card. The Blends allow for slight shading, giving me some extra tones whilst still using the three colours from the combo.









Measurements

Calypso Coral Card Stock

1pc - 4 1/8" x 11 3/4", scored at 5 7/8"

1pc - 1" x 6"

Basic White Card Stock

2pc - 5 5/8" x 3 7/8"

Lovely Layers Vellum

1pc - 2 3/4" x 3 3/4"

--------------------------

Take the larger piece of Calypso Coral and fold along the score line to create your card base, adding one of the Basic White pieces to the inside.

On the other piece of Basic White create a fun background.Stamp some of the images in Night of Navy ink.  I used the fun image and stamped it four times to create a kind of circle image and then added another image in between, but you could use the single images to fill the space and you would still get a great look.

Once the ink is dry colour in with your Stampin Blends. 

Take the piece of Vellum and adhere to the centre of the panel with a thin line of liquid glue, make sure it's no wider than 1" - so that the sentiment strip covers any signs of it.

Stamp the sentiment in Night of Navy ink into the centre of the Calypso Coral card stock strip, lay this over the centre of the stamped panel, and over the vellum - covering the adhesive under the vellum - then wrap around the edges and secure on the back. 

Add this panel to the card front and your card is done! I absolutely love how this turned out - and I reckon as much as it looks Fab in this colour combo, it would look amazing in many others
