Rose Wonder - You're in my Thoughts and Prayers

Hello again!

After a very successful Stamp-a-Stack for Christmas (14 attendees!), I have my life back again! Yay!!

I am so happy to share my entry for this week's Global Design  Project Colour Challenge (#GDP057). Oh my, was I challenged! I didn't know where to start! Lucky there is a lot of inspiration given by GDP's amazingly talented designers! Other inspiration came from my mom! This card will go to her... just to remind her that I am always thinking of her (in between phone calls every second day)!


I tried three different card bases (Blushing Bride, Rich Razzleberry and Whisper White) before settling on Mint Macaron! Fingers crossed I made the right decision!



They may look like a match made in heaven...



A Project Life card from the Good Vibes Collection as backdrop for my greeting and die cut pieces!



My Product List







Notes

  • For this colour challenge I decided to start of with two of the colours that I know work together  well - Mint macaron and Blushing Bride - from there it became easier...
  • To add interest to my card base I used heat embossing - Gold this time!
  • And for even more shine, I used Gold sequins and the Gold Baker's twine from the trio pack in Stampin' Up!'s Holiday Catalogue!
  • I added piercing to the punched circle to frame the greeting. Always a quick way to add dimension and interest!
  • For the flower (three die cut layers) and the leaves I added a colour wash of Blushing Bride and Mint macaron to Shimmery White cardstock.
  • As an after thought, I tucked in softer Vellum die cut leaves (also from the Rose Garden Thinlits set). 
My card for today! Let me know what you think!

Take care!
