For K. Werner's Color Challenge this week, it was...well let's say A CHALLENGE. I would never combine most of these colors together. They look nice in the button journal above, but they were quite difficult to work with to create a card. So, when all else fails, I use polka dots because they solve all of my designer challenges!
To create this card:
- Trim card base to 4.25" x 11", then score at 5.5".
- Stamp polka dots on the brown card base.
- Die cut square in white cardstock and a scalloped square in teal cardstock.
- Stamp flower square in orange ink on white square.
- With dimensionals, pop white square off of scalloped square.
- Tie ribbon around bottom of card base and double the knot.
- Add buttons tied in blue twine.
- Pop the square off of the card base to the right of the ribbon knots.
- Stamp sentiment in brown ink on white cardstock.
- Adhere to side of card.
Stamps: PTI-polka dot basics; out of the box
Ink: brown; tangerine tango
Cardstock: dark chocolate; taken with teal; white
Accessories: dimensionals; certainly celery grosgrain ribbon; buttons; baker's twine; spellbinders-square + scallop square nestabilities
Technique: Stamped
Card Size: 4.25 x 4.25
