Kwerner Colour Inspiration #23

Tuesday, 16 th September, 08

 

ci9Here it is! Another beautiful Kwerner CI. And don’t the colours just reek Autumn. I love the colours of Autumn, the deep reds, the bright yellows and warm browns. I had fun with these colours and will probably do some more cards in these colours. This is my first attempt-

It’s not a brilliant photo as I took it at night ( I couldn’t wait to upload) If you couldn’t tell already my base is Chocolate Chip. I might take another photo tomorrow and replace it. The colours in this challenge really suit the Spring Solitude Set. Even though the name contradicts what I said before…LOL.

  • Stamp Set- Spring Solitude and Sweet Serendipity
  • Cardstock- Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, So Saffron and Very Vanilla
  • Ink- Old Olive, So Saffron, Pumpkin Pie and Chocolate Chip
  • Tools- Bravo Burgundy Marker, Dimensionals, Oval Punch, Mat Pack, Scissors and Tape

I know I did it again! I just Can’t help it. I love to cut things out and layer them. 90% of my cards are done that way.  I love the effect it has on layouts.

 

 

I did some second and third generation stamping around the edges as a border. I stamped the bird, twig, leaves and flower on another piece of Vanilla and cut them out and used dimensionals to ‘pop’ them.

I will be doing another card and I will upload it tomorrow. I might even use the same Stamp Set. I like it that much…If you recall I used it on my last CI. LOL

Thanks for looking!
