Thank You Card Set

 

Hello! We have a new challenge at Incy Wincy Designs. It is a Color Challenge in which you choose two or more of the colors in the color chart below.


Our sponsor for the challenge is Beccy's Place. I am using a digital freebie. After seeing the Poppies image, I thought that the perfect project for this image is a card set which will be a gift to my son's teacher.

I printed the image on Strathmore watercolor paper. I was impressed on how vivid the digital print out was. I colored the flowers with Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolor. I colored a print out with one color from the color board, and used the green from the color board for the leaves. I fussy cut the image leaving a white border around it. 

I die cut a retired My Mind's Eye 6x6 paper pad using one of the Waffle Flower A2 layers die. I die cut the Pinkfresh Studio Noteworthy Frames die set on the bottom portion of this patterned paper panel so I can slide the flower through it. It will also be a place to put the sentiment on. Details on the sentiments can be found below with more photos of the cards.

I trimmed color coordinating cardstocks at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". I embossed this with Ellen Hutson Stitching Lines dies. These dies, as it is named, make designed line impressions. I have not snipped off all the wires which connects these dies together. I lined up the dies that I have snipped off with the rest of the dies and applied a piece of tape to the back to keep it all together. I made a diagonal impression of these dies for added interest. 

The sentiment is from Ink Blot Botanical Borders embossed with gold embossing powder.

I added a touch of vellum to the frame notch created by the Pinkfresh Studio die. After I die cut the frame on gold vellum, I cut off the ends with a scissor, following the impression created by the die. The sentiment is a die from Little B. I die cut this on black cardstock. I adhered three word die cuts on top of each other. I added Zig Wink of Stella on the top for shimmer.

The sentiment is from Avery Elle Peonies stamp set. I heat embossed this using Ranger Seafoam White embossing powder.

Which one is your favorite? Despite having yellow as my favorite color, I like the dramatic effect of the blue flower. 

Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope to see your creations in the challenge blog. Have a blessed, brilliant and creative day!
