Peaceful Card ~ Color Dare #567

 Don't you love it when a plan comes together! This card is an example of just that. 

First, for our Color Dare Challenge you need to use at least 3 of the colors in the graphic. We reference Close to My Heart Colors but you can use any brand you have as long as you can make a very close match. Kind of close doesn't count. Make any paper craft you like. When you're ready to join our challenge just click here!

Ok, back to that plan that came together! I started with a pattern from our NEW Make It from Your Heart How-to Book. You get detailed patterns and cutting guides for layouts and cards! This makes crafting SO easy! By the way, the colors I used from the graphic are Harbour, Mist, Toffee and Mocha with a Grey Neutral. The Mocha was used for some shading on the rocks so it's a bit hard to see. 

I wasn't sure where I was going to go with this stamp set, but I LOVE it! So I stamped and colored the image. As I was coloring I thought about tearing the edges for a rustic look. This also gave me a better fit on the card front with the pattern I used. I added some sparkle on the water with a Shimmer brush. What a nice look that creates!

Close To My Heart products used on this card:

• White Cards and Envelopes Value Pack (a must have for my stash)
• C1994 The Good Life - Cardmaking Stamp Set (link below)
• D2180 Why Am I Sending This Stamp Set (inside sentiment)
• Make It from Your Heart: Volume 6, Pattern 23
• Cardstock: White Daisy, Harbour, Mist
• Exclusive Inks: Harbour, Intense Black
• TriBlend Markers (see photos for colors)
• Shimmer Brush: Clear

The angle on this photo show off the shimmer a bit better. I just kind of scribbled my way down the stream.

I love a sassy sentiment inside when the card front doesn't hint at it.
