Quiet Meadow and Blending Ink

Happy Monday night everyone. I have been crafting and watching Monday Night Football. I was inspired by a few challenges while creating this card. Seize the Birthday Challenge #226 Make a Sunset Scene started the process off. While Looking for a color combo, I came across the Inspire Create Challenge #103. Add finally, I remembered the Just Add Ink #579 Foil, Glimmer Shimmer Challenge to tie it all together.

The color required for the Inspire create Challenge are Cherry Cobbler, Crushed Curry, Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen. 

I used all four colors to blend the background to create the sunset scene for Seize the Birthday.

Just Add Ink Glimmer and Shimmer was added with some Specialty Papers cut with Meadow Dies. Glimmering Butterflies were cut from Be Dazzling Paper and the flora was cut from Evening Evergreen Shimmer Vellum.

Evening Evergreen was used for the card base. A layer of Cherry Cobbler borders the card front.

UGH! Time Change

Good morning all. I hope you took advantage of the extra hour and slept. I did not, I woke up normal time. I'll be dragging later. The good news is the time allowed me to finish a card for Creative Colour Challenges #9.

The colors for this challenge were Merry Merlot, Pear Pizzazz and Gorgeous Grape. These are three colors I don't use very often.

I used the Summer Shadows die set as my focus. I cut out the flowers and leaves from Basic White card. I used the blending brushes to add color to the top portion of the flowers and the leaves. Gorgeous Grape ink for the flowers and Pear Pizzazz for the leaves.

The Sentiment was stamped using Merry Merlot ink and fussy cut out. I also used the Merry Merlot stamp pad to color a piece of white twine to bring in more of that color.

Card Layers use Gorgeous Grape and Pear Pizzazz. The card base is Merry Merlot. I also used vellum card stock cut from the Stitched so Sweetly set.

I used Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon and Elegant Faceted Gems to finish off the card.
