Welcome to another edition of Whimsical Wings & Things. Today’s card design came together while playing with a few challenges.
My colour palette is thanks to TGIF Challenges colour challenge Real Red, Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple Green. #tgif554
Sketchy fun over at As You See It challenge #AYSI392
Just Add Ink word prompt Celebration #JAI775
Over at Festive Friday National Candy Cane Day #FF0199 word prompts I am incorporating Red, White, Green, Sequins and Christmas Sentiment
I’m getting inky with the Traditions of Christmas DSP and sequins, Greeting for You ephemera and retired Winter 3D embossing folder, Bird Builder punch, 2 1/2” circle punch and gold twine.
Final design is so cute - I used the Coastal Cabana maker to incorporate that colour into the plaid paper from the Traditions of Christmas DSP punched with the 2 1/2” circle and the gold twine circled around it formed a little “nest” for the Cardinal for this “Seasons Greetings.”
Happy Stampin’

ReplyDeleteThank you Heather - I had a lot of fun playing along!
DeleteHow very pretty this is! The bird is lovely, the golden swirl of the nest is a great focal point and I like the embossing for added texture. Thanks so much for joining in with us at As You See It.

DeleteWonderful confluence of all the challenges and a bright, cheerful card. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kerry - challenges are like working with a fun puzzle using the pieces to make them all come together into the final product!
DeleteMargaret I love your layered blocks of colour and adding CC to the plaid DSP is a neat trick! The bird adds a sweet touch of festive elegance too and I'm always partial to a little envelope decoration. Thanks for sharing with us over at As You See It!
ReplyDeleteThank you Joanne - I always joke friends don’t let friends send out naked envelopes 🤣
