Hello friends! It's time for a new challenge at Color Hues and this time the lovely Marcia is hosting. She's chosen a beautiful combination that can work for many designs.
I'm also joining the current Pick 2 challenge at Time Out Challenges. My picks are CAS and floral. It's a maybe on monochromatic since I used 2 colors.
I was sorting through some older stamps and happened upon this oldie but goodie, and realized a silhouetted sunrise/sunset would look wonderful and it would be an easy make.
A panel of white cardstock was trimmed down to 3" x 4.25", then stamped along the bottom using black pigment ink. When dry I used several Distress inks to create the background sky. I thought I might use a black mat beneath and add to a white card base, but the drama of no white was too much to resist.
I think I spend more time trying to find a sentiment with the right words that were also sized appropriately. Three gems finished things off.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you'll take a moment to visit the challenge blog where my talented teammates and our wonderful guest designer Priscilla some have beautiful cards to inspire you. The challenge will remain open until 9 am EDT Saturday August 29th. I hope you'll join us!
