Hi everyone, usually when I think of flowers, I predominately think of the colours pink, white, yellow, orange, and red. For some reason, I randomly coloured the larger floral image from the So Much Love stamp set in shades of Smoky Slate. I was tempted to discard the image but decided to see if I could make it into a card I was happy with. This is the end result.
After colouring the flower, I fussy cut it with my Paper Snips and set it aside. I was trying to find a colour scheme which might make the image pop and decided to use a Coastal Cabana card base. I used the same stamp to create a pattern on this cardstock base. Depending on your preference, you could create a soft background by using Versamark or a stronger background by using Coastal Cabana ink.
The panel in the middle was created by using the ‘lines’ stamp from Pattern Play. I attached it to my Stamparatus and then stamped the image repeatedly to cover the entire panel.
Here’s the card…
I know the colour of the flower makes this card a little unusual but it does really appeal to me and I never thought I would say that. I really hope this card really encourages you to look at your colours and maybe change them up a little. Don’t worry if it looks weird at the start, it might end up looking really lovely! Good luck!
