I decided to try a new challenge blog this week … the Color Throwdown … to use certainly celery, riding hood red & baja breeze. I also used the challenge sketch from Beary Box for my design.
The baja blue was stamped with the Hero Arts Bold Flourish in French Blue ColorBox Chalk ink for a tone-on-tone look. I used the new EK Success Scallop Diamond border punch and the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing to add a bit of texture.
I finished with sheer blue ribbon and a three different layered blooms (paper, felt, & silk) with a jeweled brad for the center. The tiny Encourage sentiment is from Inkadinkado Trees & Leaves and is punched with a word window punch and tucked under the flower.
Happy Friday!
