Hello and welcome! Every Friday our Design Team at Color Dare gives you a new combination of colors to create any paper craft you like. There are a few rules you need to be aware though. You can't add extra colors other than what is listed in the graphic. When there is a "color of choice" this color must not be one of the Free colors offered. Your colors should be a very close match to those shown in the graphic.
This color challenge does have a "color of choice" to go with the two colors shown in the graphic. That gives me 3 colors to use + any of the Free colors. I didn't use any Free colors this time and just created with my 3 colors. I used Pretty Peacock, Cloud Cover and my color of choice is Soft Sea Foam.
The image is from a new stamp bundle called Friendly Foliage. I love the set as it can be used for a variety of occasions both masculine or feminine. Having that kind of versatility makes it even more economical and that's always a good thing!
With all the background I decided to add texture with the Forever Plaid Embossing Folder. This is one of my favorites! Using the darker CS it created a subtle look that doesn't compete with the image.
I stamped the foliage in Pretty Peacock on Cloud Cover CS. The image was die cut twice. First with the die that cute out the basic outside shape. Next I used the die that cut around the inside of the shape between the stems.
In my color of choice, Soft Sea Foam, I die cut a background piece of CS for the layer behind the plaid. I also used this color for the sentiment layer and inside the card. I few gems and I called it done!
