Bold and Graphic
April 11th, 2012
Happy Hump Day! Today I want to share my favorite card from those we created in my March Class. I was inspired by several cards in the galleries at SCS (especially this one by Mary Brown and this one by Kay Kalthoff) to pair Field Flowers with the Doily Background. I decided to try something a little bit on the bold side. It’s funny when I first stamped the Island Indigo flower over the Lucky Limeade doily, I said “oh no…this is NOT going to work!” But then I looked at for awhile and started playing with layers and added a few Kaiser rhinestones and I ended up loving it. A lesson in not reacting too quickly, I guess.
Clean and simple for sure. I love the bold graphic look of this. I’d encourage you to play with colors. Try some things you think won’t work and sit with them for a bit before you throw them out and move on. You might be surprised.
Thanks for stopping by. I’ll be back tomorrow with the monthly TE Calendar Challenge.
