Welcome back for CTC#201. Having looked at all the "chapters" we're now examining the samples on the covers - front and back.
I was inspired by the card in the middle at the bottom of the front cover. Although I have to admit that it took me quite a few attempts to come up with a card I was happy with. All those layers got me a bit confused. I think I was trying to incorporate too many colours .
So in line with "Keeping It Simple" I think 2 tones works much better.
I do love Merry Merlot and Grey Granite together and the Champagne foil is always stunning.
To get a little more depth in my strip of DSP I used the flourish stamp and stamped over the top of the white striped side of DSP, and that is also how I created the strip for the inside decoration.
Next on the hop this week is the fabulous Bec
and before me this week is Sandra
Don't forget we love to see what you create using the same inspiration pictures. Upload a picture of your project to our Facebook page.
I hope you have a creative week and remember,
"don't just post online,
post something pretty!"
cheers, Liz
I see we were inspired by the same project! I love the approach you took to the challenge, clearly worth the persistence.
ReplyDeleteIt often is the initial design that is a challenge, even when we are using the catalogue for inspiration. Your card turned out great, and I like the colours too.
ReplyDeleteHow pretty is your card! I love the colours you have used.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Liz. These colours look amazing together and I love how you've stamped on the DSP.
ReplyDeleteLove love love. These coiours are wonderful together. Gorgeous stamping for the patterned strip too. Brilliant idea.
