Color Throwdown 160 and Stamping 411 Sketch
I've taken a little break from my Christmas cards to participate in the Color Throwdown challenge. The colors are awesome and the inspiration from the design team was very..........inspiring!
Add in the wonderful CAS sketch this week at Stamping 411 and my creative juices got going.
I had a general idea in my head how I wanted this card to look, but as I got assembling all the pieces I realized that I didn't know what stamped images I wanted, which meant I had trouble deciding how to proceed. Despite all the stamps I have, sometimes it seems like I don't have exactly the one I want! I eventually settled on a sentiment from Whimsical Words, a Sale-A-Bration set from last year, and an image from Simply Soft, a hostess set from the current catalog. I opted to forgo the bow in the sketch, because I wanted to keep the layout of my card pretty clean.

it came out great! I love the flower image you used in the middle and the way you used the colors.
Super card, very dramatic but softened with the pink. x
Totally lovely!
What a lovely combination! Your card is very pretty.
I think it looks great without the bow!
It's gorgeous!! You're right--a bow might cover some of these pretty flowers!! Great job with the sketch!
Your Card Caught my eye on 411 and had to come say that I loved it!!

Looking at this card makes my heart beat a little faster! I just think it's gorgeous!!
So soft and beautiful! Love when there's only one colour combined with neutrals!
I like how it turns out. Very nice and clean. What are the circle size and the scallop circle?
I agree, those colours always make me look twice as well. Love what you've done with them :)
This card is wonderful! Love how the rose pops on the black and white. Love it!!
