I decided to use the sketch for Try Stampin' On Tuesday #108 as my starting point for the NZSU Week 8 Challenge.
Here is the sketch.
The NZSU challenge is to use a colour combination from the "Colour Coach" using the Creative Combination selection. I have used Elegant Eggplant, Wisteria Wonder and Lucky Limeade.
Here is the card I made:
I didn't have any matching ribbon in any of the three colours and I thought it would look best in the boldest colour, Elegant Eggplant so I thought I would dry emboss some card to give an interesting effect. However, I didn't have any Elegant Eggplant card to use, so I coloured Whisper White with my marker, let it dry and then dry embossed it. As it was white card I had to colour the edges of the card. I think it turned out quite well.
I would have liked to have punched the sentiment out with an oval shape, but I don't have any oval shaped punches (yet!), so I trimmed the two edges with my circle punch.
Supplies:
Stamps:Memorable Moments
Ink: Elegant Eggplant, Wisteria Wonder, Lucky Limeade (markers)
Card: Whisper White, Lucky Limeade
DSP: In Colour 2011-2013 Stack - Wisteria Wonder
Other: Big Shot, Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder, Basic Pearl Jewels, 1 3/4" Circle Punch, Dimensionals

ReplyDeleteWhat a cool idea if you don't have the colour you want - must remember this. This is a very elegant card - my kind of style. Thanks for playing along at TSOT (& NZSU challenge).
