Hi there,
It's time for another great colour combo at the ColourQ and this week it's a perfect one for spring...
I thought the the purple/yellow combination would be perfect for flowers - either violets or irises - so I pulled out Backyard Basics which has a beautiful flower (looks like an iris to me but I could be wrong - I'm not exactly an expert on flowers!)...
As you can see, there's only a touch of Daffodil Delight, but sometimes that's all you need! The flower image was stamped on Naturals White with stazon then coloured with a blender pen and ink and die-cut with the matching framelit. It was layered on a Whisper White oval, then a shape cut with one of the Apothecary Accents framelits using Elegant Eggplant card. I couldn't help adding a big fat bow and some big fat pearls to finish!
I used the layout from Seize the Sketch to help with this one...
Here's the recipe:
Stamps: Backyard Basics
Ink: Stazon, Pear Pizzazz, Elegant Eggplant, Daffodil Delight
Paper: Fresh Prints dsp, Crumb Cake, Elegant Eggplant, Whisper White, Naturals Ivory
Accessories: Large pearls, Pear Pizzazz chevron ribbon
Tools: Backyard Basics framelits, Apothecary Accents framelits, Ovals framelits
Make sure you check out the FAB projects from the rest of the Royal Court this week!
Thanks for stopping by...

ReplyDeleteI just love this card--everything about it, the colors, the way you used the Apoth. Accents framelit, and the patterned paper you chose for the background! It all makes one striking card! Thanks for sharing! I saw it on Pinterest, and just had to have the details. -Stacy
