Another Kwerner Color Challenge

One of my favorite blogs to visit is www.kwernerdesign.com/blog She does these super cool Make a Card Monday videos each week and has just started posting a weekly color challenge too. I really liked this weeks colors and decided to play! I was really scraping the bottom of the barrel with my scraps (which were all I have left of the required colors). The size of the scraps I had available dictated the design of my card, but I totally love the way it turned out! The colors were Orchid Opulence, Rose Red, Pumpkin Pie, Black, and White. I had all of the colors except Orchid Opulence, so I chose Lavendar Lace as a substitute.

I've never done faux stitching before, so I enjoyed the way that turned out. I popped the flowers up on Dimensionals at varying heights, which is hard to tell in the photo.

Supplies: Paper: Bali Breeze DSP, Lavendar Lace, Pumpkin Pie, and Rose Red CS Ink:Black Stamp Sets: Friendship Blooms, Short & Sweet Other: Crystal Effects, Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Paper piercing tool, White gel pen

Your card is too pretty! This was my first color challenge with Kristina, and I thought it was a bit hard, but you seem to have had great success.

Very cute card. I wouldn't have known it was faux stitching. It looked real in the photo. Great work :)

So cute! I am so impressed with your blog. I don't know how you find time to do all of it! I wish we lived closer so I could do it with you. I love everything!
