Pals Paper Arts Color challenge #313


It's time for a new PPA challenge. Our featured designer this week is Mary Fish, here are her colors.


Both Flirty Flamingo and Peekabook Peach are in this years brand new Incolor collection.   And what gorgeous colors they are, all 5 of them.    Normally I would not have thought these 2 colors would work together, but as you see, they are really pretty!  And so much fun to work with.

This is a very easy card. I simply took a couple of the smaller stamps from the Banners for You stamp set, stamped in White ink, ( I like white often when using white embossing powder as I can see it on my card so much better then Versamark.)   
Use white embossing powder then sponge, watercolor ect over the top and see it come alive. I then used that little 3 dot stamp to add in some Tip Top Taupe to fill in some areas and add more interest.

The white satin ribbon sadly is retired.  But I have 2 spools of it to use up and I love it! We still have silver and gold in this ribbon and it's stunning, both colors. They are softer, non metallic colors, but here I needed white. I hope you can forgive me. :)

Lovely card, Lynn. I would never have thought to use the smaller stamps in this set. You and I had the same idea with the white! I love white embossing and that satin ribbon which I still use.
