Color Inspired Greeting Card

Hello! Welcome back to my blog. I created this card as part of my AECP 2 Color Your Day course. One of the lessons in this course is Inspired by Color. My colors are inspired by Altenew's April Inspiration Challenge as seen below. I chose April because this is my birth month and yellow is my favorite color.

I am using the Altenew Craft a Flower Daisy Layering die set. I die cut the flowers on yellow and purple cardstocks with varying shades. I adhered the layers. I added details to the top layer using a Fantastix brush tip and Tim Holtz Distress inks in Shaded Lilac and Fossilized Amber. 

I die cut the leaves on a green cardstock and adhered the layers. I also die cut the stem using a slider die.

I trimmed two pieces of the same yellow cardstock at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". I added details to one of the panels using the Altenew Dotted Swirls debossing die. I trimmed a fourth of an inch off from each side. I adhered this to the other yellow cardstock panel. 

I adhered the flowers to this layered panel to created a floral bunch. 

I die cut a yellow strip of cardstock with the Altenew Essential Sentiment Strips die. I applied shimmer to a purple carstock strip. I adhered the sentiment die cut on a purple cardstock. I trimmed off the excess. To create this into a banner, I trimmed a strip of yellow cardstock, trimmed it at 1 1/2". I cut one edge of each piece to make into into a fishtail. I adhered this to the back of the sentiment die cut, offsetting it for the banner look.

I added green sequins for a bit of sparkle. 

Thank you for visiting my blog. Have a blessed, brilliant and creative day!
