Hello and happy Wednesday! A new Color Throwdown Challenge starts today and we’ve got some pretty colors for all of us to create with.
I created two cards using this week’s Throwdown colors and used the sweet Hello Bluebird stamp set, Elephant Friends with the coordinating Elephant Friends dies.
For both cards I started out with a white card base and added a panel of lavender gingham paper from the Gotta Have Gingham paper pack. I die cut both panels using the Outside In Stitched Rectangle dies. Using the same dies, I die cut two white card stock rectangles for my scenes. On each stitched rectangle I used a cloud stencil and blended on some tumbled glass distress oxide ink and also die cut a strip of grass from new leaf card stock using the Sunny Sentiments dies.
For my first card with the two elephants, I used the Typed Everyday stamp set for my sentiment and for my second card I used the Field Mice stamp set and dies for not only the sentiment but for the dandelion and flowers. I stamped and colored all of my images using Copic markers, then die cut them out. I popped up the elephants and the rectangles for my scenes using foam tape.
You can see in the picture below that I added some iridescent glitter for the dandelion on my second card.
