Hi friends! It's time for another Favorites Challenge! With the warmer weather and longer days, I find myself drawn to brighter colors when creating. Do you do that? Do you have favorite or go-to colors for each season? Well, this year I have definitely been using orange, green, and teal together quite a bit. Not only are they fun and bright colors, but they work really well together as well!
This week, I'm challenging you to create a new card using your favorite summer color combo! I am really excited about this challenge because I am looking forward to all the inspiration you post...and finding new to me color combos! You can read more about the challenge over at the Ink to Paper blog!
I started by embossing one of the stamps from the Rustic Brick set onto watercolor paper. Using my three chosen colors, I painted on a quick watercolor wash.
I stamped and die cut three balloons from the Celebrating You stamp set (and coordinating Celebrating You die set). I embossed the sentiment (also from the Celebrating You stamp set) onto vellum cardstock.
I embellished each balloon with images from the Nature's Background Essentials stamp set.
Thanks so much for joining me here today!
