Hello everyone! I'm a little late to the party in getting the Shaded Summer stamp set. I just got it during the recent one-day sale. (I got the dies during Sale-abration.) Today's cerd is a compilation of three challenges. First, is a color challenge by CAS Colours and Sketches #442 The colors are Night of Navy, Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive. The next challenge, a new one for me, Seize the Birthday #225 Use a Stencil. Add last but not least, Watercooler Wednesday Challenge 327 All Things Feminine.
I love the Shaded Summer stamp set. The flowers are gorgeous and the font is beautiful. Although, today's sentiment is from the Timeless Tulips stamp set. The size worked better for my design.
I stamped the flowers in Old Olive onto Basic White card and cut them out using the die. The leaves were colored with light Old Olive blend. The flowers were stamped again on white scraps using Rich Razzleberry and colored with Rich Razzleberry and Pale Papaya blends and were fussy cut out and glued in place to cover the green flowers.
For the stenciling, I used the Adorning Designs Decorative Masks and Night of Navy ink. I used a blending brush.
I cut the scalloped border below the sentiment out of Night of Navy. It is part of the Painted Labels dies.
I really like the way this card came out. I hope you like it too. Be sure to check out the other cards in these challenges.
Happy Stamping!
Lovely use of the colors, thanks for joining us at CC&S
