Sending Hugs--#tgifc375

This week's color challenge at TGIF Challenges is Flirty Flamingo, Blushing Bride and Soft Sea Foam.  It's a soft, pretty color scheme that I decided to play up by just adding white.   I started by using a printed Soft Sea Foam card base from the FREE (with qualifying purchase) Sale-a-Bration product choice, Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam cards & envelopes (#159940).  The printed design on the card base coordinates with the Splendid Day Suite in the July-December 2022 Mini Catalog, so I used the Splendid Thoughts stamp set (#159668) and Splendid Stems dies (#159676, bundled at 10% off with the stamp set, #159677) to create my card:

I stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed the two leaf images from the stamp set with White Stampin' Emboss Powder (Basics collection, #155554), one on Flirty Flamingo card stock and the other on Blushing Bride card stock.  These were die cut using the coordinating dies. The small open leaf images were die cut out of Soft Sea Foam card stock.  These die cuts were arranged on a Basic White circle die cut with the Stylish Shapes dies (#159183), then this circle was layered over a Flirty Flamingo scalloped circle die cut using the Layering Circles dies (#151770).  The greeting was stamped in Flirty Flamingo and die cut using a banner die from the Stylish Shapes dies. 

A bow of Soft Sea Foam Seam Binding ribbon (#159680) and three white Classic Matte Dots (#158146) complete the card.

I love color challenges because you see so many different ways people use the colors to create great cards.  See all of the designs over at the TGIF Challenges Blog here.  


Have a great day!
