Hello and happy Saturday. I am posting today as the Guest Designer at Color Hues #45, where the colors are Peach & Gray.
This is such a lovely color scheme, and I immediately thought of creating some peach flowers. This card actually was quite quick and easy to make. I pulled out a very old PTI stamp (Bigger Blooms, I think) and stamped one corner in DO Dried Marigold. Flipped the card over and stamped the opposite corner. It looked a little flat, so I used colored pencils to add a bit of darker peach to the flowers. Then I cut the center out of the panel and popped it up just a bit for some added dimension.
A very happy mistake, because now I have two cards!
I big 'THANK YOU' to the kind folks at Color Hues for having me as their Guest Designer for this fun challenge. I would encourage you to head over to the Color Hues blog to see the lovely inspiration provided by their Design Team.
Thanks for Visiting
Never thought to use Dried Marigold for the peach element Joyce, must remember that. Super quick design and its lovely to have you as our GD. :)
