It is POURING in Georgia today. It has been raining so hard and I keep thinking what a great day for a nap! I started this card last night for the Create With Connie and Mary Color Challenge. I absolutely LOVE the colors together. I am always a fan of greens and pinks together, but add in a touch of black. It is the perfect combo for me.
I also love the arrow embossing folder on the Core'dinations Paper to give more texture. ENJOY!!!!!

What a wonderful idea to emboss the dandelions in white on black! Very dramatic! The multicolored banners and beautiful butterfly are lovely finishing touches! Spring is almost here! : ) Thanks for joining us this week for the Thursday Challenge at Create with Connie and Mary!

ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Deb! So nice to hear from you! X
DeleteI don't ever think I have longed for the sight of dandelions as I have this (never ending) winter. So your card is a joyful reminder of what is to come. And butterflies too! I love how you used dry and heat embossing to make your card stand out. Thanks for joining us this week at Create with Connie and Mary.
ReplyDeleteHi Lisa! This winter has been NEVER ending! Thank you so much for you kind compliment on my card. Wishing you warm days soon! X
DeleteI haven't ever embossed clear on black either, but now I think I will give it a go...really pretty effect! I agree with Lisa Young...ready for spring! Thanks for playing the Create with Connie and Mary color challenge this week!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Lisa! Yes, I think I will do the clear embossing again on the black. It gives a different look. Wishing you Spring days very soon, too! X
