Here's a card I put together conquering two challenges at once: this Sketch Challenge and this Color Challenge. I struggled with these colors, but I think I like it. LOL...
I started with a 4-1/4" square Crushed Curry card base, added three Coastal Cabana zig zag die cuts and the 3-1/4" square of Smoky Slate dsp. I stamped the main image three times with Jet Black StazOn ink...first on Coastal Cabana cs, again on Whisper White cs and finally on Crushed Curry cs. I cut out the Coastal Cabana and Whisper White circles with my Circle Framelits and then fussy cut the friendship sentiment from the Crushed Curry piece. The Coastal Cabana and Whisper White circles are adhered with Dimensionals and the Crushed Curry banner is glued directly to the Whisper White circle. Finally, I embellished the card with three large rhinestones to give it some balance and mailed the card off.
