Pretty Palette #51 By Dottie






MTME is asking for us to us the following colors Orange, White, and Green.
I got busy this morning thinking just how I was going to design my card for this challenge.
so here is what I came up with.
using the following things I put my card together, and I hope you all like it .
Orange & White Gingham ribbon by Craft Essentials
STAMPIN'UP! Card Stock
Open stock St.Patrick's day paper from Joanns
St. Patrick's Embellishment by Recollections
Green, White & Orange 1 7/16 round punch by Recollections
I used my corner punch by Creative memories
using my Marvy Punch I used the Ribbon stitch die.
I put the Gingham ribbon through the fence and then added the circles down the left side of the card, adding 3 Gingham bows I then over layered my orange card stock with the printed parer over that , I then added another orange circle in the center of the card and added my embellishment of my lepricon . lastly I added at the top of my card a label that reads Happy St. Patrick's Day on Orange paper and printed in dark green.
so I decided to also link it to http://simonsaysstampschallenge.blogspot.com/

using the shapes required by this challenge it was easy to put together. I used my spellbinder small oval dies , one in a baby blue card stock and the other with white card stock and stamped a IRIS on it and using my crayola colored pencils. I colored it in with lavenders yellow and a tint of orange. the leaves I did in a deep forest green and added a touch of brown .
I used light yellow for the body of my card and then over layered a pretty Easter print by Recollections
I used a strip of striped paper by DCWV and also another print with spring color circles on it also by DCWV. using my glue gun I glued on the baby blue oval then with pop dots I added the white with the gladiola I added my cream colored sheer Bow and put 2 tags on it one that Reads "FAMILY" the other "FOREVER". lastly I added two buttons one purple and one pink and put a small lavender flower in the center of each .
