Hello friends. I am sharing an anniversary card I made for some friends at church. I made this with two challenges in mind -
Color Hues Challenge - Coral and Green
The Flower Challenge - Add Embossing
I embossed a SU Soft Sea Foam panel with Spellbinders Christmas Wrap Pattern EF and glued to the white card base. I used my new Gina K. Designs Flower Medley stamps, dies, and stencils to make the pretty flower images. After stamping with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, I used the stencils to blend SU Grapefruit Grove (ret.), a hue of Coral, Granny Apple Green, and Old Olive inks to the flowers & leaves. I die cut the images with the matching dies. I used Spellbinders Essential Diamonds dies to cut a white panel and a mat of Grapefruit Grove. I stamped the sentiment (an older Verve stamp) in Grapefruit Grove ink, then glued the 2 panels together. I mounted the diamonds with foam tape and then mounted the flowers with foam tape in opposite corners. I colored 5 clear rhinestones with the SU Dark Calypso Coral Blend and glued them around the diamond panels.
I will also link to Darnell's NBUS as this is the first time using the Gina K. Designs set.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
I like that you used softer shades of the colors, JoAnn. This is a pretty card!
ReplyDeleteA very pretty CAS design, JoAnn! The florals are lovely and putting the sentiment on the framed diamond was a great idea. Thanks for sharing with us at Color Hues!
