Effortless Beauties Card Set - CTD633

Hello, hello! Happy Wednesday! It’s time for this week’s Color Throwdown Challenge and we have some lovely soft colors for all of us to create with.

I created a set of two cards using this week’s colors and the new Effortless Beauties stamp set and coordinating dies. For both cards I used the same pale blue Lawn Fawn background paper, impression plate and the Feathered Friends Mini 1 stamp set and die. I also used the same ink colors on both card which were bashful blue, kraft, smoky slate and basic gray.

For both cards I used a retired scalloped rectangle and oval die that was part of the shaker kit from Papertrey Ink and I die cut them from white card stock and then used the plaid impression plate for the center. All of my images were adhered with the birds and a few flowers popped up with foam tape and then I glued on some sequins and added some wink of stella clear glitter pen to each rose.
