Today's card was inspired by Kristina Werner's latest Color Inspiration Challenge! I have the best time participating in these! Here is what she challenged us with this week:
And, here is my card! I used the Eastern Blooms set to build a nice bunch of flowers:
Goodies:
All products by Stampin' Up!
Stamps: Eastern Blooms set, Full of Life set
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Tangerine Tango, So Saffron Classic inks
Paper: Whisper White, Tangerine Tango cardstock
Accessories: So Saffron wide grosgrain ribbon, Dimensionals, Piercing tool, Chocolate Chip Marker, Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Crystal Effects
I hand cut all of the flowers after stamping a bunch of them on Whisper White cardstock. Next, I stamped the branch images onto the Whisper White Square and started to build my bouquet! I used pop dots to pop some of the flowers up. I also curled the edges of the flowers with a pencil to give it a softer look. After they were all placed, I stamped my sentiment and added Dazzling Diamonds using Crystal Effects. I added the ribbon and stuck it to the cardstock base, creating a 5.5" Square card!
Hope you are having a great day! I am expecting some new stamps in the mail from the new occasions mini catty so hopefully I'll have time to play this afternoon!!!
Thanks for stopping by!
