Welcome back to another challenge at The Spot, your place for inspiration and weekly cardmaking challenges. This week we have a fun colour challenge and would love to have you join us!
When I first saw this colour combination, I thought "hmmm interesting". Again not a colour combo I necessarily would have put together on my own, but that is the great thing about challenges! I played it safe and pulled out the stunning Forever Fern Bundle. That stamp set can make any colour combo look amazing;
I definitely feel like I kind of cheated on this one because this card was so easy to put together. I started with a card base of Thick Whisper White Cardstock and then softly ink blended the Cinnamon Cider Classic Ink on to the front. Confession time: This was the first time I had opened up that ink pad! It is such a nice soft warm brown and now that I have used it, you will definitely be seeing more of it on upcoming projects. After blending the ink I added some little splatters of Mint Macaron using a Stampin' Write Marker and flicking the tip of it off the cap. This creates a very fine splatter effect.
Using Vellum Cardstock I die cut one of the leafy images from the Forever Flourishing Dies. Then using both Blackberry Bliss and Mint Macaron Classic Inks I stamped two of the images on Whisper White Cardstock and die cut them out. The sentiment was stamped on a Stitched Nested Label Die cut and then to finish off a little bling was needed. I added a few Gilded Gems and then a double bow of Linen Thread for some texture.
Now be sure to check out The Spot for some fabulous inspiration, and I hope you can join in on the challenge!
