It's time to play with the Pals Paper Arts (PPA) again. This week we are working with a color challenge.
And here is the color challenge.
As you can see, I used a variety of product. Let me start from the back and work forward. Don't you love the new Brick Wall Textured Impressions Embossing Folder? I find myself using it often – especially nice for masculine cards.The color on the brick wall was created by using sponge daubers in 3 different Stampin' Up! colors – the three colors in the challenge.
The next layer is a piece of Rich Razzleberry dsp from the Brights Designer Series Paper Stack that is matted with a piece of Rich Razzleberry Cardstock.
On top of that layer is a piece of Pear Pizazz Cardstock that has been embossed with the Elegant Dots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. It is matted with Whisper White Cardstock.
Moving forward is a stamped image using a stamp from Watercolor Wings. The image is stamped with Rich Razzleberry Ink and matted with matching card stock. This helps to tie the card together so it doesn't just look like a hodgepodge.
The star of my card is the sweet little butterfly flapping its multicolored wings that sit atop a butterfly cut from Rich Razzleberry Cardstock with a Butterflies Thinlit. The new Silver Metallic Thread forms loops behind the butterfly to add both texture and dimension.
Look closely and you will spy a single Rhinestone Basic Jewel placed on the butterfly body. The final touches are a sentiment banner and a trio of Brights Candy Dots placed near the top of the card to provide balance for my butterfly.
I am so appreciative of the comments that you leave for me. I read each and every one of them and I really look forward to them. Please leave me a comment today letting me know what you think about my card.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
Hugs,
Ginger
STAMPIN' UP! SUPPLIES USED:
I like these cards! You used a lot of different ways to make things stand out! Quite nice & another piece of art!
Pretty card! Love how you did the brick wall!
Pretty card, I like how you had a bit of white between colors, that was a good move. You are so good at being creative and this card is another example. Magnifico!
Fun! I love the brick wall treatment including more “moss” at the bottom as in real life! The card must be facing north as they say moss grows on the north side of trees. Love all the details from the embossing to the muted colors on the wall. I am not sure why I do it too, but I like to add a rhinestone or a pearl to the butterflies too. Fun to see it just isn’t me. The candy dots work perfectly in balancing out the little butterfly. Well done! I might have to pop over and see what others did with the color combo. The simple mating of the papers really did the trick and I need to try that more!
Amazing! You did an awesome job with this color challenge!
Very cute Ginger. Love the way you distressed the brick.
