Wisteria Field Flowers

Saturday, 18 th February, 12 at '5:16 pm' 20 comments

Hello everyone!

I was taking a gander around blog world yesterday and I decided it was about time I had a play with a challenge. It has been a while don’t you think?! One of the first ones I checked was Just Add Ink and they had a gorgeous colour combo challenge. Take a peek

Isn’t that a beautiful combo? But also a challenge for me as I always have a bold colour in the mix, maybe even two, but I don’t class any of these as bold. But I managed to make the Wisteria Wonder pop by embossing it. Have a look

Here’s a closer look

I used the stamp sets Field Flowers, French Foliage and Precious Butterflies for the sentiment. I used one of my favourite brads and the pretty Pool Party ribbon to add an accent. I also used the Woodgrain BG stamp on the base.

It was great having a go at a challenge again…..should do it again real soon!

Thanks for dropping by!

    While these colours may be a little subdued for your tastes Kirsty, you certainly made them work! Absolutely beautiful!

    So glad I’m getting these sets. Your cards are a great inspiration on how to use them to make sunning cards. I would have found that colour combo very challenging to use, but your end result makes the combo look fresh.

    A gorgeous card Kirsty. The embossing gives the flower the look of dew drops and you have really made that colour pop. Thanks for playing with our colour challenge at JAI this week.

Hi, I am a Independent Stampin' Up! ® Demonstrator in Gatton, Queensland. I'm married with four beautiful children, Sean, Jemma, Akayla and Darcy. I absolutely love scrapping and cardmaking and try to do both as often as possible. With four kids that's probably why I'm 6 years behind in my photos....lol.
