CD 625 - Wonderful Day

 Welcome to Colour Dare Challenge 625!

There is a new graphic for this challenge - please check the information shown on the image. 


I made two cards for this challenge. The colours on my printed graphic were somewhat off from what is actually shown. 
I used orange, red and teal blue for the first card. I die cut the floral image and stencilled it with all three colours. That was set on an inked background so the colours would show through the holes. I used a lighter touch with the ink so there would be a bit of an ombre effect. A white heat embossed sentiment was placed across the card and I added gems to the centres of the flowers. 

For the second card, I used all the colours from the graphic. The red is a little hard to discern as it photographed in more of a red-plum colour.

The background was die cut with a pierced leaf coverplate. The leaves were stamped in yellow, orange and red and the leaf outlines were stamped in brown. They were die cut along with some plum coloured branches. I stamped the sentiment using the same colours as for the leaves and arranged the elements above and below the sentiment piece. A few gold sequins were added around the leaves. 

Come and join us at Colour Dare and show us how you interpret this challenge. 

You have two weeks to link up your project. 

We can't wait to see what you create!

Enjoy, 

Alyson
