This is my submission for today's Color Challenge - to make a monochromatic card. It is also for the Saturday challenge over at Our Creative Corner which this week was to make a birthday card. http://ourcreativecorner6.blogspot.c...challenge.html
I love using paint samples for monochromatic cards because they already give you different shades of the same color. I used a paint chip that had saffron as the color family. I stamped the flowers onto the paint chip with Versamark and embossed with saffron colored EP that was in a set I got from AC Moore. I did the same with the birthday sentiment. Ribbon and brads finished it off.
Thanks, Emily, for another great color challenge and Dawn, for OCC birthday challenge!
TFL!

Oh, this is SO GORGEOUS!! I love the softness of saffron and never would have thought how pretty this color would be by itself but you really showcased it well!
