Color Hues #103

 
Hello my crafty friends!  The Color Hues team has joined up with the team at the Inkspirational Challenge to bring you a very special challenge this fortnight.  Tracey, our host, has chosen the wonderful February combination of Red and Pink. Carol Mayne and her Inkspirational DT will also be using these colors for their current challenge.  We encourage you to visit and play along with both sites for some wonderful inspiration and perhaps additional exposure to your blogs.

I had extra post holiday time on my hands so I made myself a two-fer.  (This is also my second post of the day so if you missed my post for the Sisterhood you can find it here.)


Up first is a very boldly colored Thank You card.

I used several pieces from a NBUS nesting postage stamp die set to create a color blocked effect.  I dug deep for itty bitty floral pieces and added a bold Thanks to the center.  






Up next is a traditional Valentine. 

Her sleeves were created with vellum that I colored with an alcohol marker.  The details on the heart were heat embossed in white.  The background was created with a 3D embossing folder.  This entire set is also NBUS.  (Look at me go!)

Supplies:

Unity Stamps - Postage Stamp die set (NBUS)
Spellbinders - Simply Perfect Layered Blooms die set
Spellbinders - Jul7 2018 DOTM (floral dies)
Altenew - Bold Thanks die set

The Greetery - Holding Hands die set - NBUS
Gina K Designs - Llama Love stamp set
Spellbinders - Deco Holiday embossing folder
vellum


I am single handedly filling Darnell's January NBUS gallery.

Again, I'd like to invite you to visit our blogs and hope to see your card in both the Color Hues and Inkspirational galleries.  We would love for you to become regulars at both challenges!

Thanks so much for visiting!

Jules

  1. Two wonderful card designs for the challenge Jules! Love those funky die cut flowers on your postage card with the fun die cut white framings and the sweet Valentine of the hands holding the heart (I have that die you have reminded me to get it out!) Julia xx
