Are you ready for another Diva Coffee Break Design challenge? This week Heidi gave us this fun color combination to work with.
I looked through my file of card sketches and found this fun sketch from Julee.
I combined the two and came up with this card.
I stamped the large flower image three times, cut out the different layers, and adhered them on top of each other using dimensionals. I love the depth dimensionals add to the flower. I finished off each of the flowers with a half-back pearl from the Pretties Kit. I also added three more pearls on the bottom corner of the card.
I wanted to add a little bit of green behind the flower, so I used the leaf image from the "Dream a Little" hostess set.
Isn't this ribbon gorgeous? This is the new Whisper White Organza ribbon. I hope Stampin' Up! has more organza ribbon in different colors in the next catalog.
For the inside of my card I thought I would imitate the look of the main image panel on the front of the card. I stamped the leaves, stamped and layered the flower, scalloped the edge of the cardstock, and adhered it all together. I flipped over the Always Artichoke cardstock, added adhesive to the back and then adhered it to the inside of my card. That's when it hit me...it's mostly pink on pink. OOPS! I should have made the center panel Almost Amethyst. By then it was too late because I already had the entire card made and I didn't have time to redo it. Just learn from my mistake!
Back in November I used this same sketch to make a similar card using the Abundant Blessings stamp set from Verve. Click here to see the card that inspired the card I made today.
