Hello and welcome,
I haven't entered a challenge at Just Add Ink for awhile and when I saw the colour challenge, I just knew I had to enter my handmade card. These colours are so pretty together and the design team have created beautiful projects using the colours.
I finally purchased the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle from the Stampin' Up! 2021 - 2022 Annual Catalogue and I love it! The stamp set has beautiful hand drawn floral images and coordinating fill stamps that give the design an effortless watercoloured look. The coordinating Penned Flowers Dies have delicate florals and botanical accents for your paper craft projects.
This is my first card using this bundle and I've used the FREE Saleabration item, Beautifully Penned 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper. The black and white paper coordinates with the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle.
Starting with Basic Black Cardstock for the card base and adding a layer of the black polka dots on white Beautifully Penned DSP.
The addition of ribbon was used, firstly Pale Papaya & White Ribbon and then a layer of Black/White Baker's Twine.
Using a piece of watercolor paper I've stamped the beautiful floral image in Black Stazon Ink. Using Pale Papaya and Polished Pink Ink to colour in the flowers using the fine tip Water Painter. I like to mix the two colours together a little to add depth.
As I needed a birthday card, I've used the greeting from the Sentimental Rose Card Kit. I've heat embossed the sentiment by using Versamark Ink, White Emboss Powder sprinkled onto Basic Black Cardstock and heat set with the Heat Tool. Then fussy cut out the greeting and I added a bow using the Baker's Twine.
Thank you for visiting my blog today, I would so love hear your thoughts on my project by leaving a comment below.
