I really liked the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge this week, but am a bit late getting started on it. Having looked at some of the challenges throughout the rest of this week, I thought I'd link the Sweet Sunday sketch in with The Color Dare this week. The colours are ones I would never have thought to put together - So Saffron, Concord Crush and a Neutral!
I grabbed my stack of In Colour DSP and my Trendy Trees stamp set for this one and thought I'd make a lovely Thinking of You card.
I used the trusty Stamp-a-ma-jig to get my trees trunks and the leafy tops all lined up, and decided the put the more standout Concord Crush colour in the middle, but to make it a bit more interesting I stamped it twice and cut one out with the 1" Circle Punch and popped it on top with a dimensional. I thought it gave a nice bit of dimension to the card. I used the Eyelet Border Punch along the bottom, and added in some Crumb Cake textured card for mounting.
I wasn't too sure these colours would really work together, but I think they look great!
