I'm back today with a new card that I created by combining two blog challenges. A color challenge from Fab Friday using Coastal Cabana, Real Red and Gumball Green and a sketch from Retro Sketches.
This is my creation:
I really like the way it came out because I stepped out of my comfort zone again, this time by creating a square card. I usually always create a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card base so it was fun creating this one. I finally purchased the Joyful Christmas stamp set and I'm so glad that I did! I used gold embossing powder to bring out the lines in the poinsettia. The smaller stems, I colored them on Whisper White and cut them out then popped them up with dimensionals. I felt like I should add more to my card, but finally decided to leave it alone.
What about you, have you created different size cards? Do you have a usual size of your cards?
Thanks for stopping by today, until next time.
What a pretty poinsettia! I like how you did the petals 2 different ways...it's gives a great depth to the flower. Thanks for sharing at Fab Friday!
