I love colour challenges that take you out of your comfort zone and really get you thinking! The challenge this time was no different! I had to play with ideas in my head for a while before I finally sat down to stamp!
This week we are playing with the colours Delightful Dijon; Elegant Eggplant; Whisper White and Crushed Curry. What a colour palette to work with. These colours look stunning in the images above. This is another colour selection that I would never have naturally put together, so it was fun to play with! I built the idea of the card in my head well before I inked up a stamp, so was very happy when it came together!
I created the stamped raised frame by Stamping on the white card front before cutting four of the frame outlines with the stitched shapes and Layering Square Framelits. I then adhered them together and popped them back in their original position. I used the stamp off method for the spots and flowers, so the colours weren’t overpowering the entire card. I then decorated with a range of flowers from the Botanical Blooms Framelits. That gorgeous sentiment is from the Designer Tee stamp set which you can redeem for FREE during Saleabration!
Here’s a little peek at the inside of my card! I cannot get enough of those STITCHED SHAPE framelits!!!!!
Well I hope you enjoyed my creation and are encouraged to continue around the hop to see all the other amazing projects!!!
Hop on over now to the lovely Monique to see what project she has created using this colour suite!
Happy Crafting!
