Good Morning Everyone
I hope you have all had a fabulous weekend - the weather has been absolutely glorious so we have spent a lot of time outside - playing in the Garden and going on some lovely walks. It's set to be another Sunny week, so let's hope we can all enjoy it some more!
Today I'm sharing my card for this week's Brand New Creative Colour Challenges colour combo.
I love the mix of Mossy Meadow, Polished Pink and Gay Granite and can see so many possibilities. I have used the bouquet of flowers from the Bottled Happiness to create a bold background for my card, adding in a bit of the Polished Pink ribbon and a wonderful Sentiment from Lovely You.
Measurements
Gray Granite Card Stock
1pc - 5 7/8" x 8 1/4", scored at 4 1/8"
1pc - scrap
Basic White Card Stock
2pc - 5 7/8" x 3 7/8"
1pc - scrap
-------------------------------------
Take the Gray Granite card stock and fold along the score line to create your card base. Add one of the Basic White piece of the inside.
On the remaining piece of basic white stamp the flower images to create your background. The stamp is a two step stamp. You have one which is mainly flowers which I stamped in Polished Pink, and one which is the leaves and foliage that I stamped in Mossy Meadow ink. I found it easily to stamp one full bouquet first before moving onto the next, just so you could get your spacing right and not have any overlapping.
Once the piece of card is full of flower wrap three lengths of Polished pink ribbon around the top right corner, I used a little tape to secure then down on the back.
Add this Panel to the card front.
On a scrap of Basic White, stamp the sentiments from Lovely You. These are two separate sentiments, so take your time to line them up on your card. I practiced a couple of times on some copier paper first. With these stamps being Red Rubber I found it a bit trickier to get then lined up correctly, so the practice really helped.
Once you have your sentiment stamped, trim and layer onto a scrap of Gray Granite card stock and trim to leave an even border.
Add this to the centre of the card front with Dimensionals.
Colour three of the Basic Rhinestones with your Mossy Meadow Stampin Blends, and the place in the top right of the sentiment piece.
Finally tie a bow in the same Pink ribbon and add to the lower left of the sentiment panel with a glue dot.
I hope you have enjoyed today's card. What do you think of the colours? If you would like more information on how the challenge works, or would like to enter head over to my blog - Creative Colour Challenges.
