This card is my submission for the 2nd challenge at Colour Me Beautiful. I thought I could say that I'd used all the colors, but then I realised that I'd used Whisper White instead of Very Vanilla. Doh! Oh well, 4 out of 5 ain't bad.
I masked off a piece of Whisper White then sponged Calypso Coral and More Mustard at the top and Always Artichoke at the bottom. I then colored the stamp using Basic Black and Raspberry Ripple markers. I finished off with a sentiment from PTI. I considered all sorts of embellishments, but in the end decided to keep it CAS and simply layered it onto a Whisper White card base using dimensionals.
Thanks for looking.
Products used (all Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted):
Stamps: Delicate Florals (Penny Black); Signature Greetings (PTI)
Cardstock: Whisper White
Ink: Calypso Coral; More Mustard; Always Artichoke; Basic Black
Accessories: Basic Black and Raspberry Ripple markers
Cheers
Karren
