YAY for Friday! We've got a color challenge going on for TGIF Challenges, a little So Saffron, Poppy Parade and Pacific Point. I decided to use these colors to create a child birthday card with the Little Elephant bundle of products. I paired these products with the Balloon Bouquet punch and am super please with the results. This is a fairly simple card and would be easy for you to recreate using any colors.
I created my own patterned paper in the challenge colors using the long border stamp from this set. I needed patterned pieces large enough to punch out a balloon using the Ballon Bouquet punch. I stamped the board image 3 times and allowed it to overlap a little. Notice the card base? I used the same stamp image to create a pattern for the card base in Gray Granite to add a little visual texture.
The background is a simple watercolor block using a lightened version of Pacific Point and applied with an aqua painter. I was hoping to evoke the look of a little bit of sky.
The design team over at TGIF Challenges has loads of inspiration for you using these color. We would love it if you visit and PLAY ALONG with us. Ready? Happy stamping! #TGIFC171
