Hello friends! Welcome to our new challenge at Color Hues! For April our dear Stef has chosen Peach and Kraft for us to use. I chose floral stamps and stamped them in warm brown ink, colored with Copics, then fussy cut them out.
I wanted the sentiment (Penny Black - Smile) to be the focal point on my card because I love the message and the pretty fonts. Using the dies I cut and framed a diamond shape and matted it with kraft card stock.
To dress it up even more, I added a 3D embossed panel (SSS - Magnolia Branches) and a few flat gold sequins.
Our wonderful challenge participants fill our gallery with beautiful cards and clever designs. I can't wait to see what you will make! Just have fun.
