Hello and welcome! It's time for a new challenge at Color Hues and this beautiful combo of purple and green is brought to us by the amazing Cindy. Perfect for spring flowers! We're also fortunate to have Amanda Mertz as our fabulous guest designer for this challenge.
I'm also joining the current challenge at Addicted to CAS, where the theme this time is Garden.
I chose to color some pretty violets to use with these colors.
The Gina K Blue Violets are just so pretty and delicate, I really love this stamp. I chose an orientation in the lower left corner so I could stamp the stems off the bottom of the panel. I colored them with alcohol markers (listed below), then trimmed down the panel with a Hero Arts Rounded Rectangle die.
Next I used gold paint from the Altenew Metallic Watercolor paints to color the flower centers then added just a light bit of splatter. The Altenew Vertical Greetings die set had fortuitously just landed in my mailbox, so I die cut one of the sentiments from SSS Matte Gold along with two additional layers of white, adhered them together then onto a white shadow die. I wrapped some gold twine around the panel to anchor the sentiment, popped it up with thin foam squares then used more foam to add the panel to the card base.
Now it's your turn! But first, stop by the challenge blog to be see the amazing cards by the other DT members, they are fabulous! I hope to see your card in the gallery - you have until 4/28 at 9:00 am to play along.
Take care!
