Hey there, everyone! It’s Wednesday and that means Color Throwdown! Today, Danielle is our hostess and she has chosen these earthy colors to throw down:
I am feeling a little under the weather, so I did an easy card using some wonderful BG papers that I found that had most of the colors I needed! I also used the Sweet Sunday Sketch #101:
I chose to make mine square in order to fit my DP better:
My sentiment is a digi from my friend Arielle’s little shop, Wax Fruit Company. I printed it on Whisper White, then brayered it with River Rock and stamped Sanded in Crumb Cake over top. My Copic selection is not too extensive, so the color’s not quite Marina Mist! The flourish is from Verve’s A Cup of Life.
My single embellishment is a little shabby flower made from the various DPs using my Boho Blossoms punch . All in all, a pretty easy card which will go to a friend who is going through a rough time right now!

ReplyDeleteNice job. Just a simple thought to send to a friend, but it was made with so much love.
ReplyDeleteI can't find the WORDS to describe how FABULOUS those colors are together! WHAT A SUPER smashing and uplifting card! Sheesh, girl! LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous, LeAnne! I love how you took a digital image and added a few things like the background and flourish to customize it! Love the flower, too!
ReplyDeleteSUPER GORGEOUS, LeAnne! Love the colors, too! And WOW - I hadn't even thought about working with a digi like that! I'm very honored that you used one of my sentiments!!! You're so sweet!
ReplyDeleteThanks for introducing us to your friend - what great images and a fun place to shop. LOVE this card - I wouldn't have thought to put these colors together but they are fabulous. Wonderful card kiddo!
ReplyDeleteThat's great! I love the bold paper combined with the bold sentiment! Great flower addition too!
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely lovely LeAnne!
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning, LeAnne! I LOVE that patterned paper and how you made the sentiment your focal point. Totally appropriate for the occasion, I'd say. Your 3-D bloom is a lovely accent ♥
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fabulous design, LeAnne! I love the papers you picked to work with!
ReplyDeleteThis is just lovely! I really like the effect you got from stamping and brayering over the sentiment. Thanks so much for having me as a guest this month--I had a great time.
