Hello and happy holidays!

Hope you’re having a great time with your loved ones.

Quickly popping in to share a card I showed on Altenew blog another day.

For this card I was Pantone color of the year inspired. And its 2016 color of the year combines two soft shades. I am not very concern about a color of the year in other aspects of life (like clothes, home decor or makeup), but always looking forward for the new Pantone color to create a card according to it. It’s always fun to go through my stash checking which supplies can fit for the new color.

To make this card I first cut a panel from  Classic Crest Solar White cardstock and created two-shades background inking the right side using Frosty Pink crisp ink (which plays role of Rose Quartz shade) and the left side – using Sea Glass one (assigned this to be Serenity).Next I white-embossed several flowers from Painted Flowers stamps set on vellum and adhered them on the diagonal where two background colors meet. Using dimensional adhesive added a white-embossed sentiment (from Beautiful Lady stamps set) on a stripe of white cardstock that was inked then the same was as the panel background was.Added several sequins of corresponding colors and adhered the panel to a Classic Crest Solar White cardstock card base.

Thank you for stopping by!
