My new stamp of the month (Technique Tuesday’s Greenhouse Society) arrived a few days ago. Instead of just putting it away I decided to use it for few challenges. I colored it with two different color schemes for two different color challenges, one more for spring and one a little less typical. Joining in these challenges:
CAS on Friday #227 – Flowers
Color My Heart Color Dare #488 – Fancy Five (pick any 3 colors from the 5 shown- lemonade, green apple, sundance)
As You See It #270 – spring flowers
Sweet Stampin’ – KISS (Keep it simple, stupid!)
Crafter’s Cafe #283 – use some flowers
Wow, Melanie, what a pretty Spring stem – and your coloring is gorgeous! I really like your shading details on the other elements, too – great touch! Thanks so much for playing at As You See It!
Your cards are so beautiful! The first one fits our challenge well. Thanks for sharing at Color Dare.
Beautiful cards. Very clever use of ink blended circle behind your first card. Thanks for playing along with Color My Heart Color Dare. X
Ah! Hyacinths are one of my favourite spring flowers! The colours are so luminous and they are so fragrant! I love how you displayed the image in both cards – the blended circle, making me think of sunshine, and the stenciled blue. Thanks for joining us at As You See It Challenges!
Melanie, I love both of these cards. I’m naturally drawn to such clean and crisp designs. I think they both encapsulate spring really well. If forced, I’d say my favourite was the stencilled blue background but it’s a close run choice! Thank you for playing along with us at As You See It Challenge.
Love, love, love this!! Your coloring is just beautiful, and I love the navy stems and leaves! So unique yet so very pretty 🙂 Thank you for joining us this week at CC&S!
Just beautiful Melanie – I love both colour combos and especially the layout with the stencilling behind. Thanks for sharing with us over at As You See It and CAS Colours & Sketches this week!
Hello Melanie, they are both lovely cards – the flower stamp is so pretty and so well coloured, but I have to say the second card is my favourite. Love the colours and the layout is so stylish – so glad you entered it in Sweet Stampin’!
Thanks for joining in with our challenge and look forward to seeing you again.
