Hello friends! Today's card is for the new challenge at the Paper Players. The lovely and amazing Ann is hosting our color challenge, choosing a gorgeous combination of colors.
This lovely combination had me thinking spring flowers but I pivoted to using a new die set that I received recently.
The only Stampin' Up! cardstock I had was a piece of Mossy Meadow, the rest are from my cardstock "collection", trying to get as close as I could to the other colors, along with adding some gray and brown neutrals.
The vases and branches are from the Altenew Earthenware Vases dies set. The blue vase was embossed using the Altenew Textured Blocks 3D folder that came with the die set. The background is fog cardstock embossed with the Honey Bee Stamps Rustic Brick Wall 3D folder. It was a bit too textured for layering all the other die cuts on top, so I ran it through my die cutting machine between the plates, which flattened it just enough.
The "table" was created with the Tim Holtz Lumber 3D embossing folder and the Altenew Elegant Sayings stamp and die set provided the sentiment. I did use a couple of Copic markers to color two branches and one set of flowers. I left the other set of flowers uncolored, so it's more of a lighter version of coral. The card came together quite quickly, once I settled on which cardstock I was going to use.
I look forward to seeing how you use this beautiful color combination, but before you head off, please pop over to the challenge blog here to see all the amazing cards created by my talented teammates. The challenge will end on lucky Friday February 13th at 3pm EST. I hope you'll join us this week!
Thanks for stopping by!
