Today I have for you my creation for the Global Design Project #gdp029 'Colour Challenge'. And I'll be honest, I was challenged with this colour combo.
I felt less was more when thinking about how to tackle this Challenge, and I am happy with my result. Thankyou, Bruno!
And my final cards - yes, I was on a roll and made two.
I found the 'Amazing Birthday' stampset on my shelf, and decided this would be a perfect set to use.
The 'HAPPY' sentiments were fussy cut and placed onto the striped banner using 'Stampin' Dimensionals'. And I finished the 'BIRTHAY TO YOU!' by using the 'Washi Label Punch'.
The colours are quite masculine, however the touch of gold from the 'Wink of Stella Gold Glitter Brush' and the 'Gold Foil' stars soften the overall look. You could use these cards for anybody & everybody, and it's always a great opportunity to make a couple of cards to keep in your stash.
*Dimensions for my notecards:
Whisper White cardstock cardbase 20cm x 10cm (score at 10cm)
(7 7/8" x 3 15/16")
Bermuda Bay & Tangelo Twist mat 9.5cm x 9.5cm (3 3/4" x 3 3/4")
Whisper White mat 9.2cm x 9.2cm (3 5/8" x 3 5/8")
The left over Whisper White cardstock is a perfect amount to stamp your banners & sentiments for both cards.
