Hello again. I’m excited to be back with another guest designer post. This time it’s at The Color Hues (TCH) for their PURPLE AND ORANGE challenge #96.
*affiliate links were used in this post when possible at no extra cost to you… thank you*
It appears orange is a very popular colour this time of year. 😆 This colour duo screamed Halloween, but I went in a slightly different direction and created a fall birthday card.
I used never-before-used (NBUS) Build-a-Wreath die set from Spellbinders and die cut the branches/twigs and flower centers from brown cardstock. The rest were die cut from white and ink blended with distress inks (DI) using various size blending brushes. Highlights were added with a white Posca pen.
DI used:
bow - Wilted Violet, Villainous Potion
flower petals - Spiced Marmalade, ink remaining on an orange blender brush
flower centers - Gathered Twigs, Black Soot
leaves - Spiced Marmalade, Rusty Hinge
The sentiment from Hero Arts Let’s Celebrate was stamped with Wilted Violet distress oxide ink onto white woodgrain paper from Memory Box. Assembled the card onto a white card base to finish.
I want to thank Nancy and TCH team for this GD opportunity. To see more inspirations from the design team and/or to link up your entry, please click HERE. Thank you for stopping by.
