Hello and Welcome, Dear Friends!
Today's card and inspiration came from a great challenge, Just Us Girls and I've gracioiusly been asked to be the Guest Designer this month! What a great honor and I hope I can make them proud, plus inspire you to join us in the fun. This week's challenge is a Color Challenge ~
Don't you just love these colors? Wow, I know I'm thrilled. I used the same colorsbut went a tad lighter, it seemed to work a bit better on my card ~
I used a couple of new products in my "collection" and I'm sure glad I got them. I stamped in VersaFine Clair Twilight onto a white panel. Using only two shades of DI's, I did some ink blending through the matching stencils. Since I only used one color for each element (flowers or leaves), it gave me a bit darker range for the second inking of each color, and I didn't haven't to fuss with finding matching colors. After cutting the panel down with a die, I popped it up on a layer of foam over the mid-gray base cardstock. Then I hot foiled a sentiment on matching cardstock with silver foil and layered it twice, so I didn't get too much dimension.

Well now that was fun, wasn't it? Creating is always a joy when you have great inspiration and products. Won't you see what you have, and join us in the fun?
Supplies:
PFS - Bougainvillea Print stamp & stencils, Fancy Script hot foil plate & die
