TGIF Challenge #580 - Color Challenge







Isn’t this a STELLAR color combo??? Granny Apple Green is my FAVORITE  SU “green” … and combined with the richness of Night o Navy and the subtlety of Smoky Slate it makes for an amazing outcome! 

Check out the blog challenge here - TGIF Challenge Blog if you’d like to play along.











See what I mean??? This card was created using a 8.5”x5.5” piece of cardstock, scored and folded at the 2.25” mark and the 6.50” mark. I cut a 1” strip from the right side so that it left a gap once the card was folded.

I cut a 1” strip from some Country Woods DSP and placed it inside the card where the gap in the front exposes it. I also added a little trim on the left-hand side using one of the Bordered in Beauty Dies.

I actually cut TWO of the Granny Apple Green elements cut using one of the Lovely Arrangements Dies. I adhered one to the outside/front of the card and the other on the right/inside of the card. This made the element more stable and allowed me to adhere the White Baker’s Twine that I used to act as a closure tie for the whole card.

Stamps: Lovely Arrangements
Paper: Basic White, Smoky Slate, Granny Apple Green, Country Woods DSP
Ink: Night of Navy, Granny Apple Green, Black Memento
Accessories: Lovely Arrangements Dies, Bordered in Beauty Dies, 3D Sunflowers Embossing Folder, White Baker’s Twine, 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls









The 3D Sunflowers Embossing Folder provides the perfect background for the flowers, sentiment and diecuts. Isn’t this a fun fold??

How’d we get to the weekend already??? It’s already JUNE and my brain still feels like it’s stuck back in FEBRUARY!
