Hello Friend

 Hi to all,

The Color Hues Challenge has one of my favorite color combinations for their challenge colors this time. Pink and green. Just look to nature for inspiration!

I've pulled out a couple of my Gina K Designs stamp sets and the Wreath Builder System to make this card.

Using the GKD mini set called Painted Blooms and the Wreath Builder system, I stamped the wreath then cut it out using MFT circle dies. (my GKD circle dies are not large enough.) I heat embossed the greeting from the same stamp set using white EP, doing three applications of embossing ink and powder to get a nice smooth and raised image. This is trimmed just slightly larger than the sentiment and popped up with foam squares.

I made the wood grain panel using Gina's method with Soft Stone ink. It's cut using some of the dies from ML8. The background panels are cut with ML1 and the white panel is stenciled using Fresh Asparagus ink. The card base is Bubblegum Pink, and I added large green pearls and some tiny pink gems to the center of the Bubblegum flowers for embellishments.

On the inside, I used the same layout as on the front. The greeting stamps are from the GKD Best Flowers stamps set.

I think this is one of my favorite cards that I've made recently. Thanks for looking in,

Colleen
