You are beautiful - floral



"You are beautiful" card made for a family member with shades of greenish gray, yellow and orange, and black and white inks. Scalloped ovals dies are Sizzix brand, Rainstones are from Papertrey Ink, stamps are all from Hero Arts Let Love Grow set.  Ombre Orange parts were made with Hero Arts Ombre ink and a sponge dauber then cut.  Card base and yellow scallop are cut from metallic yellow cardstock.  One extra flower was stamped, fussy cut, edges inked and curled, then popped up on pop dots for dimension.  Once again, it's very busy for CAS, but I really was concentrating on the sketch and the colors I needed to use.  So my card turned out not so CAS, sorry for that.  Feel free to disqualify my entry if you need to! : )

Entering this in CAS colours and Sketches 156 Challenge, Simon Says Ombre Challenge, Color Throwdown 375 and Addicted to Stamps 176 Challenge.
