Hello and happy Wednesday everyone! I have the distinct honor and pleasure of being the guest designer at Color Hues! If you haven't played along with Color Hues before you really should. It is such a fun challenge, and it runs for two weeks giving you lots of time to play along. This time the color combo is navy and pink. My card for the challenge has a whole lot of diecutting and a little bit of stamping! Check out the fun Color Hues animated banner.
And here is my card:
Like I said there is a whole lot of diecutting and a little bit of stamping. Back in July... yes, July of last year I purchased the Birch Press Tranquility medallion dies from a local crafting store called Impress Rubber Stamps. Because of supply chain problems I did not actually receive the dies until September. Then with one thing or another I wasn't able to create with them. When I got the nod from Color Hues for the guest spot and received the color combo I knew just what dies I would be using, lol! I die cut the bottom and top layers from dark blue cardstock and the middle from pink and then adhered them together. I used the Dotted Lines cover die from Altenew for my background piece and adhered the medallion to that. The large thanks is another die from Birch Press called Big Thanks Sugar Script. I die cut the top layer from pink cardstock and the shadow from the dark blue. I added that to the center of the medallion and then added a sub-sentiment (from Concord & 9th) that I stamped in VersaFine CLAIR Twilight on pink cardstock, die cut it and adhered it below the thanks. I finished with some pink pearls from Trinity Stamp.
Thanks to the gals at Color Hues for having as a guest designer! Thanks for stopping by and make sure you play along with the challenge!
