CC267 Yay! I used grey!
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: ApricotRose

 I've never used grey on a card before, so this is a first for me! I had to start gently, so there's only a bit which I used to mat the main panel. I rarely use dark colours as a base card, so this whole card was way out of my comfort zone!

As well as grey, I used the other 2 colours in the colour challenge which are Apricot Appeal and Sage Shadows. I used black as my neutral.

The design is partly inspired by a coaster I saw at my SIL's at the weekend, and I knew this stamp from Good Neighbours would be perfect for it. Each leaf is embossed in silver and cut out. The sentiment is also embossed in silver.

Thanks for taking a closer look!

Stepping out of your comfort zone has had some positive effects---you did a marvelous job on this and your silver-embossed leaves and sentiment take this from clean and simple to clean and elegant!
