Today I was inspired to join in with the Color Hues Challenge. I had this Rose Bouquet Embossing folder from Altenew out on my craft table as I used it a few days ago to make a card for a friend. I thought it would work perfectly with the Coral/Green colors.
I embossed the white card panel and then used blender brushes to add the colors. The sentiment is a Better Press Plate and Die set from Spellbinders.
I ended up making three cards for three different occasions. The sponging of ink comes out differently on each card. I start in the center where the ink will be the darkest and then brush out to the edges.
I think the Sympathy card came out with the smoothest blending of color but I like them all.
I'm sending my Birthday card to:
ends 6/14
Layers, Free, Floral
ends 6/19
ends 6/27

so pretty with the little pops of colour ♥
Lovely to see colour on that beautiful embossing folder that you left white on your card you just posted on SCS! Great shading and colours on these!
Three fab makes Julia, just shows what a change of sentiment can do. I tried my first stencil/ ef combo but was a little disappointed with the results, your soft take is a much better idea! Thanks for linking up at Color Hues. :)
I love the wonderful deep embossing and your coloring! Isn't it amazing how each is a bit different and so pretty in coral and green. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Color Hues!
I often need a sympathy card in a hurry as I tend not to make them ahead of time. This is a wonderful idea and so special too. Thanks for sharing it with us at Seize the Birthday Challenge.
Such a gorgeous quick & easy card design, Julia! Love your inking on the bouquet, each version!!

Three lovely cards Julia. This folder is so pretty and the beautiful, summery colours pop against the white. xx
These are beautiful, and really capture the delicate nature of those blooms. xxx
