Color Hues # 80

We have a new colour duo starting today at the Color Hues for Color Challenge #80! Did you notice our new graphics? We have updated graphics and watermarks for he team. Head over to the Color Hues blog to see all the new graphics that Nancy's son, Ty help her create!

Teammate Sheri picked this new colour duo of Red & Pink perfect for valentines! I thoughts it was the perfect time to use The Greetery's Falling Hearts Background die and ended up creating three inlaid cards using red, pink & neutral white.

'



I made three passes--one with white, one with pink and one with red. I put all the hearts from each colour into separate dishes and then applied adhesive to the front of the card base. I poked out all the hearts but hung on to everything that fell out. I left the dots in the die cut and inlay the dots where they had come out. I followed a system for each row starting with red then pink.


Doesn't it look fantastic when all the hearts are inlaid back into the die?

I cut a coordinating heart from the Lawn Fawn Outside In Stiched Hearts dies for my white embossed sentiment. All sentiments are from The Greetery Hot Stuff stamp set. 

I repeated the same process to create two more inlaid cards with red and pink pieces.


With one background die I was able to create three cards!

Please head over to the Color Hues blog you will see what the rest of the team has made with these colours. As always my teammates created fabulous cards!

I am also submitting this to the newest Just Us Girls challenge for Color Week!


...and also to the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge!
