Floral Trio ~ Color Dare #699

Welcome to a new Color Dare Challenge.Every Friday we give you a new combination of colors to create any paper craft you like. There are Free colors we let you use but do not add any colors beyond that. 

When you're ready to join our challenge use the link below our graphic.

The challenge is to use at least 3 of the colors shown. I ended up u8sing all of the colors! Sometimes it just works out that way. These colors spoke to me in a Spring way and that meant flowers. I love how this turned out.

I started by stamping the trio of flowers on white CS. Next came the die cutting. I chose the size that worked best to highlight the flowers. Then I went up 2 sizes for the other die cut. I wanted the card base color to show around the flower layer. 

A bonus was the ribbon as it has both greens on it! I played with it a bit to get both sides to show.  Mini Glue Dots were used to hold the ribbon just the way I liked. 

I added some Dots that picked up the light green and sprinkled them around the card front.

The inside has a stamped flower in the corner to bring the design both inside and out. I think it's important to decorate the inside, too.....and the envelope! I didn't photo it but stamped a flower in the lower left on the front.

Lacy Look ~ Color Dare #686

Hi there and welcome to my blog! Today I'm sharing a project for the Color Dare Challenge.

Do not add any extra colors beyond those shown in the graphic or the Free colors.

Make any paper craft you like. When you're ready to join our challenge use the direct link below the graphic. 

I used the new Forever Florals Bundle to create this card. The delicate look of the large die cut really captured my attention when I first saw it. Pairing it with some of the other die cuts for the sentiment layer was all I needed to get this design going. 

I popped up the sentiment layers and added the ribbon for some eye appeal. The sparkly gems was the final touch.

Here is a close up of detail in my design. You can see the delicate look of the die cut as well as the layered sentiment with the ribbon and gems. I love all these colors and how they look together!

Now it's your turn to use our color challenge to start a project. We love seeing what you create and how our colors inspire you! Have fun!
