Hello,
Its Daring Cardmakers challenge time!!!
The dare for this week is "Raspberry & Lime"...
You have to make a card that uses bright green and vivik pink as the main colours...
I have never liked the pink and green combination...
But thanks to this dare...my view is changed forever...
I loved the combination so so much...that I created 2 cards using the same combination and idea...
(Sadly...the card didn't photograph very well)
For the first card, the wreath was created using the tiny flower stamps from the Mudra Floral Silouette card...
For the 2nd card, I used the smallest flower from my Mandala stamp set by Peekaboo to create the wreath...
The background was created by sponging Distress Inks through a lattice stencil...
And I used 2 sentiments from a Ki by Hampton Art stamp set...
Two beautiful cards!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!! Loved how you used the small stamps to create the wreath.
ReplyDeleteYes sometimes Challenges make us try something entirely new...love the stencilling

Phew, I'm glad you changed your mind! I found the combo odd myself when I first came across it but the bright colours appeal to my "youthful" mind *gg*
ReplyDeleteI like your cards, the oriental pattern works well with those colours - xx Svenja
