Color Hues #93

Hi there crafty friends, it`s time for a new color duo at the Color Hues Color Challenge #93! I'm the hostess this Challenge and I wanted to pick bright summer colours! ORANGE and YELLOW seemed perfect as we head into the second half of August.

I used the Simon Says Stamp Friendship Leafy Cluster stamps and dies for my card and tag today. I started by ink blending two sets of the leaf images. The first was darker than the second because as hard as I try I’m heavy handed and my results are always darker on paper than I’m my mind!

I prepared the white card base by splattering some yellow gold watercolour on to the panel. I attached it to the card base with foam tape. Then I added my leaf clusters on to the panel with assortment of foam circles.

The thanks was gold embossed and cut with the coordinating dies. For being a friend was white embossed on orange cardstock and attached with foam tape strips. 

I finished the card off with orange pearls for added interest!

Using my leftovers I created a tag. I had made a panel with orange and yellow Distress Oxide sprays in Carved Pumpkin and Mustard Seed. 

The tag shape, an old MFT set, was cut from the panel  I added the last remaining leaf cluster and a sentiment white embossed on yellow cardstock. 

I finished it off with yellow pearls and gold cording for the tie. Felt so good to make use of my leftovers!
