It's Wednesday so that means time to get creative with a new challenge at Stampin' Royalty! This week we are challenging you to get colourful with a fresh and fun colour combo that imediately made me think of flowers (and apparently I was not the only one,lol). So be sure to check out the fab samples from the design team and we hope you can play along with us this week:)
Not sure why but when working with these colours I felt the need to create lots of white space and clean lines. Normally I am all about sponging and destressing:) The base of the card is Whisper White then I layered on using Dimensionals, another piece of Whisper White that had been embossed with the Stripes Impressions Folder. Next I created a large Daffodil Delight flag that was embossed using the Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder and used the debossed side to add contracting texture.
The bold flower was made using the Blossom Punch and a few pieces from the Blossoms Builder Designer Printed Kit. I used the Paper Crimper on the Cherry Cobbler and Daffodil Delight pieces to add even more Texture. As a fun little element I took some Lucky Limeaide Organza Ribbon (a FREE Sale A Bration choice) and curled it by wrapping it around the end of my Paper Piercer. I added a sentiment from Pettite Pairs and the inside of the card reads "...begin with you!" So cute!
Haver a great day!
I LOVE what you did with the ribbon! That looks so pretty! plus the rest! of course.

LOVE the clean and simple look! (deceptively simple!!) and i like the curly ribbon too. I find that mine curls on it's own and drives me nuts. I will have be more purposeful next time!

Jenn, this is so pretty! I love the curly ribbon. That stuff stresses me out, but I just have to try that.
