Hello all! It's time for another Color Cue Challenge and what a super trendy combo of colors we have to work with this time around...
Here is my challenge card...
Here is my challenge card...
Started off by creating a colorful strip of Simply Chartreuse, Orange Zest & Hawaiian Shores cardstock pieces. Simply attached the cardstock pieces to a cardstock strip then trimmed to the width of the card front. Next, heat embossed it with two of the heart background strips, from Background Builders: Hearts, with clear embossing powder. Then attached the strip to the white card base.
Then created the sentiment focal point, using a Fillable Frames #4 die cut. Stamped it with flower stems (in Spring Moss) and a sentiment (in Dark Chocolate), both are from The Birds & The Bees. Finished it off with a small Simply Chartreuse cardstock strip and Hawaiian Shores & Orange Zest buttons. So happy with the way this turned out, it really helps to have wonderful colors to work with!
I hope you too will play along with us in this fun color challenge. You can find all the details here. Now, be sure to stop by and check out the inspiring projects that the rest of the Wplus9 design team has come up with!...
