PPA289: A Color Challenge

When I saw the colors for this week's PPA challenge (#289)
I thought I should make a girly card. Here's my card.



 These are the three colors Lynn Hoyt chose for the challenge.

I used one of my favorite embossing folders - Elegant Lines. 
It's retired, but I love it!


I attached a bow and some pearls to the embossed panel, and on top of that,  
 I brushed Wink of Stella over the inlays. 
I think that's enough to make the card look sweet. :-)


Stamp: Sheltering Tree 
Paper: Very Vanilla, Blushing Bride, Pear Pizzazz
Ink: Night of Navy
Accessories: Elegant Lines Embossing Folder, 1/2" Seam Binding Ribbon (Night of Navy), Pearl Basic Jewels, Wink of Stella (Clear), Owl Builder Punch, Cupcake Builder Punch (for small circles), Dimentionals, Mini Glue Dots

Thanks for visiting!

PP283: A Clean-and-Simple Challenge



The theme of the challenge from Joanne is "up, up and away".

 
 I heat-embossed the image and the sentiment on a piece of vellum, and attached it loosely to the striped base panel. That way the stripes aren't obtrusive and yet makes the plain background a little interesting.


Finally I connected the hot-air balloon and the sentiment with silver string.


Stamp: Up, Up & Away 
Paper: Vellum, DSP Subtles (Bashful Blue), Whisper White
Ink: VersaMark 
Accessories: Embossing Powder (White), Metallic Thread (Silver), Sequins, Mini Glue Dots
