CC348 ~Blue Foliage~

Photo Details
Poster: hollerinastamps

 Vicki's colors were truly a challenge for me today. I'm not sure how you all feel about blue leaves but I kinda like them. I combined the CAS sketch from yesterday with today's colors for my card.

Very simple today...rock and rolled leaves in turquoise and cajun, stamped the waterspots and a bit of linen bg in crumb cake, sponged some more crumb cake around the edges and used a retired SU! rub-on for the sentiment. The cajun panel is sponged and distressed and the crumb cake base is embossed with the square lattice ef. I punched leaves out of cajun cs, stamped with the leaf from the French Foliage set, sponged the edges and crumpled them up. They are popped up for today's dessert!

I love these color challenges as they stretch my creativity week after week! Thanks, Vicki!

Your card is so pretty!! We were both apparently thinking along the same lines. I like your embossing and how you have the beautiful sentiment on your card.

Just for the record there's a play called The House of Blue Leaves (it's a dark comedy...I actually saw it a few years ago in Mpls.) so it' not a totally new concept..lol! I think your card turned out beautiful! Sometimes you never know where your art will lead you...and I like the path yours took today.
