Make the Cards 60 - Bold Blooms on Black

 Welcome to Make the Cards Challenge #60!

This week, it is a technique challenge - use a black cardstock background. 

Black can be overwhelming so I decided to offset it with very bold colours. I chose bright pink and green shades.

The black cardstock was embossed with a floral embossing folder. I die cut all the floral and greenery pieces and inked many of the pink ones for additional interest. They were all assembled and adhered to the embossed base. I stamped a sentiment in the same shade of bold pink and added a strip of coordinating glitter paper underneath. The last step was to brush the lines of the flowers with a clear shimmer brush and add Stickles to the centres of the flowers. 


Come and join us at Make the Cards Challenge and show us how you interpret this week's challenge. 

You have two weeks to link up your project. 

We can't wait to see what you create!

Enjoy,

Alyson
