This card is for two challenges: CAS265 "Color Blocking a Twist" - to add a die cut or punched shape to your color blocking, and CC471 "Sweet Medley". I chose the colors to match as closely as I could to pistachio pudding, crisp cantaloupe and pool party.
Super easy card! I punched three 1.5 inch squares from pre-embossed white paper and applied soft pastels with a Brush Stix blender and my fingers. I started to clean off the embossed parts but I like the subtle look of the tone on tone; I don't know how well it shows up in the picture. I ran the squares through my Xyron and adhered them to the card base, then added the zinnia die cut and sticker sentiment. I was going to forego dessert on the color challenge to add ribbon - I kept sticking a bow on the flower stems - it looked wonky to me. But I like the tiny ribbon along the side, so I get dessert after all. Yum!
As always, thanks for looking!
