Happy Thursday! I have a card to share today. I am playing along with this week's Papertrey Ink Make It Monday Challenge. This week Lexi has challenged us to Color Wheel Cards.
This is my take on the challenge. First of all, I finally got me a much wanted wishlist item. I got the Window Works die. I have wanted this amazing set of four dies for what seems like forever! So, naturally, when the challenge was issued, I thought to myself I am going to use one of these window frames. My take became more of an inside wheel design.
I chose to keep my card very clean and simple...for me, anyway. I started with some PTI Stamper's Select White card stock. I stamped the floral images using 2018 Anniversary Set: Mixed Bouquet stamp set. I chose to use only five images in my color wheel. I wanted the colors and images to fit inside the frame without being too crowded in keeping with a clean and simple style. However, I did mix other colors on the image. I used PTI pure poppy, scarlet jewel, harvest gold, bright buttercup, simply chartreuse, green parakeet, blueberry sky, amethyst allure, and hibiscus burst inks.
I added foam tape to the top panel to pop it up off of the actual stamped piece underneath. I added a sentiment from Penned Elegance stamp set using versafine onyx black ink. I added my panel to a piece of amethyst allure card stock. I finished with a few clear sequins.
I am also playing along with The Paper Players Spring Theme Challenge and Casology Abstract Challenge (inside color wheel that is not a wheel or even a circle).
As always thanks so much for stopping by!
I love your take on the card! Very pretty design.
