Happy Monday and Happy August! Can you believe it?? This summer is flying by. Only four weeks until we are back to school!
Here is the latest Embellish color challenge...it's a beautiful color combo.
So here is my card....I went for a kind of vintage wallpaper look with this....it's a little different.
I used bits and pieces from several sets--the ticket outlines from Just the Ticket, the bird, branch and sentiment from Birds of a Feather, the little leaves from Scattered Showers Additions and the flower is from WMS' Asian Gardens.
The inks are Raspberry Fizz, Simply Chartreuse and Dark Chocolate (all PTI) as well as a Colorbox pink. There is also Dark Chocolate baker's twine, a Simple Chartreuse button and some Dark Chocolate Bitty Dot paper punched with a Fiskars Apron Lace border punch.
I actually made a whole 8 1/5 x11 sheeet with the ticket outline background and came up with three different cards. Stop back tomorrow to see the second one!
Thanks for coming by!
