Hello all,
Ann has a pretty pallet for this week's color challenge for the Paper Players. I made three cards, all with flowers, as that was what these colors seemed to inspire. I picked my favorite to post for the challenge.
I cut a FreshFreesia panel with a stitched rectangle die, then cut the window from the Pretty Peacock. The flowers are cut from white and I ink blended them with the three colors using light and dark inking. The sentiment is heat embossed with white ep. While it's a little hard to tell in the photo, I ran some vellum through a SSS 3D floral embossing folder, glued the window to it and trimmed off the excess before gluing the window to the panel. IRL, the velum is much more visible.
The inside is simply stamped with some sentiments from both SSS and Honey Bee.
I hope your week has been going well. We went to dinner last evening to celebrate my birthday, a BIG one, LOL. It was low key, just us and our good friends plus my nephew who is in San Diego for a conference.

Colleen, your card is beautiful! Your attention to detail is amazing...from the embossed vellum to the glittered window frame. The shading on the flowers is equisite. You have showcased my challenge colors perfectly. Thank you for playing in my challenge at The Paper Players this week!
ReplyDeleteThat wonderful window die makes such a perfect setting for those flowers. Love the way you've coloured them and layered them - it's as if they are alive. Thank you for joining in with us at The Paper Players.
