You're the Best

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

It's challenge time with my friends over on the CCEE Stampers challenge blog. As challenge hostess for the month, I continue to issue you the challenges.

Apparently August is Peach month and Monday 22nd August is National Peach Day, so for our challenge this week create a card that features one or more things that begin with the letter "P" .. A punched image; patterned paper; pansy; paint; person or a product that is from a company whose name starts with “P”.

For my card today I opted to go for the company whose name starts with "P", my card using stamps, dies, stencils and hot foil plates from Pinkfresh Studio. The stamp set I used is called Painted Daisies, another "P" word. As well as the company name, I used the colours peach and pink and added pearls as an embellishment.

One thing I love about Pinkfresh Studio's sets is there is normally a coordinating stencil and die and sometimes even a foil plate. After stamping the painted daisies onto white card, I used the coordinating stencils to color my image. You can see the colours I used in the supply list below.

I used the Stained Glass die to create the background panel, layering it over peach cardstock and then added highlights to the design with a darker peach color.

I used the new Script Sentiment Hot Foil Plate and coordinating die for the sentiment. To finish off the front of the card I added some metallic pearls in Sparkling Champagne.

For the inside of the card, I added another of the Painted Daisies image. to the lower right hand corner of the card. 

I added another sentiment using the Script Sentiment Foil Plate, foiled using Aura foil. I layered the sentiment onto peach coloured circles.
