I love Kristina Werner's Color Inspiration this week...it is so fresh and fall-ish! Trendy and Modern, but not too bright! It also fit the Moxie Fab Blog Challenge...and it works for this week's Blogger's Challenge (to make a Thankful or Thanksgiving card.) I also made one just like it as a co-worker Birthday Card with the Happy Thoughts sentiment set as well. I rarely make 2 of the same card, but I NEEDED the birthday card ASAP and I figured it would be easier to make 2 of the same than try to come up with 2 different ones in a short amount of time.
I broke out a never used Verve set or two for this one! I used the main floral image from Beautiful You and the background scroll and sentiment from Grateful Elegance. I used my Niji Waterbrush and ink pads to color the image and added some detail to the background with a white gel pen...then I decided the white was too stark so I sponged over it with So Saffron. The patterned Paper is Ambrosia by Basic Grey.
Supplies:
Stamps: Grateful Elegance, Beautiful You (verve Stamps)
Paper: Stamper's Select White, Ambrosia (Basic Grey,) Pumpkin Pie, Elegant Eggplant, So Saffron
Ink: Elegant Eggplant, Pumpkin Pie, So Saffron, Close to Cocoa
Misc: Sticky Gems (colored Eggplant with Sharpie Marker,) Stardust Stickles, Lace TrimWhite Gel Pen, Paper Piercer (Webster's Pages,)
Thanks for stopping by!
