SCS Color Challenge CC486

For the SCS Color Challenge this week, Barbara has chosen Old Olive, Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight with a dessert of different shaped card.

I was inspired by the Cutting Edge Challenge #2, CASE card;

I was pleasantly surprised while organizing my stamp room [once again], I came across a Fresh Squeezed stamp set, On Trend, [well, apparently FS is OOB - who knew] that had a "city" image similar to the die cut that  Kardyn used on her card. Worked for me!  

I stamped the image with distress inks [yellow and green] and spritzed it with water, and then stamped in black once it was dry.  [The "old olive" didn't show well, so I added some colored gems for that color].  My hello is coral and also works for Moxie Fab's Word Die Cut.  And, I got the dessert by making it a round card.  Another successful card :).

Come on over to SCS Color Challenge and play along!  These colors have amazing potential!


Thanks for stopping by~

Oh, I love the effect you got with the DI and the spritzing, Vicki!! I'm definitely going to try that!! This is a very cute card, (I love round cards!!) and the colours are so yummy!!! The diagonal stripes at the bottom looks great and the green dots just round it off perfectly!!! Beautiful, as always your cards are such a pleasure to look at!! Love your work!!!
