The Challenge #60

Hello. Today I'm playing at The Challenge #60 at Always Playing with Paper. This week is a color challenge and we had to use pink, red, gray and white.


This is the card I made using Altenew Vintage Flowers. The flowers were inked with 3 of the inks in the Altenew Red Cosmos ink cubes set. I used 2 shades of gray for the leaves. Of course, I used my MISTI so I could position the layers correctly. (Most of them...) If you don't have one yet, I would definitely recommend getting one. It's worth every penny!

The leaves were stamped directly on the card base. I used some pieces of leftover card for my flowers. After stamping, I fussy cut them and added them over the leaves with foam for dimension. The sentiment was also stamped in gray. To finish my card I added a scattering of Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear Sequins. Sequins are another of my must-haves. I love them!

I am also entering this card into the challenges at Pixie's Snippets Playground: Week 216 (my flowers),  Seize the Birthday  - without toppings, and AAA Cards: Game 58 - Add Sequins.



(Edited to add - Darn! I missed the deadline at the Playground. Next time!)

I hope everyone is having a good weekend. Enjoy!

  9. I have the Vintage Roses, which I still can't figure out, so these Vintage Flowers are really appealing to me, as they're bigger, bolder and incredibly lovely! Your card: elegant, classy, stunning...
