Another Prairie Grass Sunset

Today I am playing along with three challenges to create the inspiration for my card design.


The Cupcake Inspiration pastel colour palette challenge #CI165 , The Color Hues challenge use orange and green #TCH117 and TGIF challenge has  a use arches #TGIF540.



I decided to use the colour palette of Petal Pink, Lemon Lolly and Soft Sea Foam paired with the Everyday Arches dies. I am was inspired by a design from Leonie Stuart on Instagram that incorporated the Mini Corrugated Embossing folder for some texture behind the arches and the Prairie Grass stamp set. 


I loved the soft sunset vibes that came with the blending of the 3 colours and was surprised how the orange evolved using the Petal Pink.



Not to toot my own horn but end results were so pretty! I decided to blend my sentiment as well because the white looked too stark against the softer colours and the addition of the hand drawn birds was a Bob Ross moment where I got ink where I didn’t want it so needed to cover it up l. So as Bob always said “we don’t make mistakes we make happy accidents.” The birds totally go with the vibe and look intentional. 


Happy Stampin’
