Hello! Thank you for stopping by. Color My Heart Color Dare #538 is posted!
The colors this week: Glacier, Periwinkle, Sage and Melon (use 3). My card features periwinkle, sage and melon. I have to say I really struggled with these colors because I don't have these colors in my stash of card stock. But this is a challenge right? So I have to make this work and I'm actually quite happy with what I came up with.
My card features the Simon Says Stamp Embossing Folder and Dies Floral Harmony. This is impressive! I embossed a piece of Bristol Smooth card stock and die cut the blooms from the a separate piece of Bristol Smooth card stock. I pulled out my Zig Real Brush markers and colored the blooms with the markers and a water brush. And did the same with the panel. The card base is Almost Amethyst which is the closest I could get to periwinkle. I layered the embossed panel on black card stock which really makes this pop. I also hot foiled a sentiment onto black card stock using matte gold foil.
Please join us for the challenge!

GAH! I can't even with this card! Where do I begin? The embossing folder is beyond gorgeous. The 3 focal flowers are so soft & I love how they are popped up. Not coloring all the flowers gives your eyes a rest & really makes the colors POP! Stunning card.
