Color Hues Color Challenge #107

 Hi there crafty friends!I'm sorry that I am late posting my card for the newest Color Hues Color Challenge! Teammate Jules Peddicord has chosen Orange and Teal as the colors for challenge #107.

The last three days we have been in a state of emergency here due to an ice storm that has done so much damage to our property and to our town and the towns surrounding us. We have had no power since Friday overnight, it just came back on this morning. All the trees and branches had a thick coating of ice on them and we had 24 hours of them snapping and breaking and falling down. The sound was unbelievable, like fireworks! I posted a couple videos on Instagram and FaceBook if you want to hear what we were hearing. It was very scary! We had three trees come down on our property, our beautiful cedar, that it probably close to 100 feet tall, split in half and thankfully missed the house! It has been such a difficult winter! Anyways, we are safe and warm once again and on to today's Color Hues post!

I used the PinkFresh Studio Detailed Leaf foil die and stencils for my card. Although the gold pearl embossed sentiment looks really nice in real life on the teal cardstock it did not photograph well! In fact you can't see it until you look at the close up below.

After stencilling using Catherine Pooler Apricot, Orange Peel and All That Jaxx inks I cut the leaf cluster out with the co-ordinating dies. It was attached to the teal card base with foam dots which gives it lovely dimension.

The sentiment, the big flub, was embossed with Wow Gold Pearl embossing powder. Which as I said above looks lovely in real life not so much in the photo.

If you haven't already visited the Color Hues Color Challenge Blog I hope you stop by and see what my fabulous teammates have created for the challenge. 

Thanks so much for stopping by and I can't wait to see what you create!
