Wheee! What a color challenge! Danielle really stirred up the bucket with these colors of Purely Pomegranate, Tangerine Tango and Kiwi Kiss! I was not quite sure what I was going to do with these!
Then I remembered I had received some blog candy DP with some of these colors--could I make it work? Someday, I'll show you my first attempt--maybe on April Fool's Day, because it is probably the most foolish card I've EVER made! But not today! There is actually not much stamping on this card:
Isn't this paper something else? I cut out a couple of the flowers, sponged them with Purely Pomegranate ink to give them some depth and popped them up on dimensionals. I also highlighted the edges with a Jelly Roll pen for a little bit of sparkle! The coordinating stripe goes across the top with my sentiment from Warm Words stamped in PP and mounted on a PP scallop from SU's new Scallop Oval punch. I also got some pretty flowers in my blog candy stash, so I used them as my embellishments. The whole shebang is mounted on a Kiwi Kiss card.

LOVE IT! That paper is amazing. Super work. I never did own Pomegrante, so I can't really play. But it is a fun combo
