Color Hues

 

Orange and teal are the new colors for the The Color Hues Challenge. Couldn't resist playing along with this happy color combo!  It worked well with this great new Into the Blooms: Radiant Florals die set just released by Papertrey Ink. I cut all the pieces from white card stock then color blended with dye inks from PTI. I only added glue to the centers of the floral sections so I could slightly curl up the petals.

I stenciled the background for starters then added the middle sized Love to Layer: Arches die. I kept it a generic card and will add a sentiment to the inside as the occasion arises. Sometimes I just can't bring myself to cover up the card front in any way - lol!

STAMPS: None...yet.

INK: Orange Zest, Canyon Clay, Hawaiian Shores, Tropical Teal, Harvest Gold, Summer Sunrise (PTI).

PAPER: Stamper's Select White, True Black (PTI); Bristol Smooth Surface.

DIES: Into the Blooms: Radiant Florals, Love to Layer: Arches (PTI); Stitched Rectangles STAX Die-Namics (MFT).

OTHER: Watercolor Plaid Stencil Collection (Papertrey Ink).

Thankfully it's Friyay! Another snow storm and frigid cold temps are forecast for the weekend, so that meant a quick trip to Target for stocking up on some staples (bread, milk, snacks, etc.).  ~Wanda

 

Aqua & White

 

There's a new "to me" challenge that I just couldn't resist and that's The Color Hues Challenge. Nancy is hosting with an aqua and white theme.

I die cut two large and two small Marianna Vine Background pieces using heavy weight vellum and white paper. I splattered the white leaves with Salvaged Patina distress ink.

I stenciled the background with Salvaged Patina and Rocky Slope.
