 | | A sympathy card for a dear friend and cardmaking buddy who recently lost her father. I wanted to make a soft and feminine card with some flowers.
Following my usual pattern, I checked SCS challenges that I had not participated in to find some ideas to focus on and get my mojo moving. Several challenges dealt with the possibility of using flowers, but I needed to come up with a color scheme and a layout. I found my color scheme from the newest Inspiration Challenge from the Serengeti Fashions website and refined it with the Alphabet Challenge, Color Letter I for Ivory. My layout idea came from the Featured Stamper Challenge that used a quatrefoil background with a flower, though I modified my layout to make it more mine by using a lattice three-layered die-cut with only partial background coverage and added more than one flower.
Here are my challenge entries:
#1. IC656 - Inspiration Challenge - 7/1/18. I found my color scheme with this lovely coral, soft brown, and cream top: https://www.serengetifashions.com/it...T1=WE537+MUL+M.
#2. DD9ABC9I - Alphabet Challenge - 4/18/18. . .Color Letter I = Ivory. NO bonus challenge for me.
#3. MMTPT510 - Teapot Challenge - 5/1/18. . .May Flowers. Use flowers in your creation.
#4. F4A434 - Free For All Challenge - 6/15/18. . .Vacation View. On my vacation, I would love to go to Vancouver Island, B.C. to Butchart Gardens to view the lovely flower gardens!
#5. FS595 - Featured Stamper - 7/1/18 - Gallery to visit: cheiron, aka Cheiron Brandon. Cheiron has a lovely gallery, and I found my card layout from her card design, though I changed my colors, used a lattice partial background instead of a quatrefoil background, and added more flowers and glitter. I kept the fishtail flag design for the sentiment, though I layered mine. Cheiron's card: Quatrefoil Happily Ever After by cheiron at Splitcoaststampers.
