Good morning! The summer is just flying by, don't you think? But another Tuesday means a new ColourQ challenge, and this one is especially yummy. Check it out:
I don't have the new In Colors from SU yet, so I subbed Pacific Point for Island Indigo and PTI's Berry Sorbet for Calypso Coral. I still love how these colors look together!
I used the limited edition set Iconic Images from Papertrey Ink to stamp the bottom of the main panel with aqua medallions. I added the silhouette with Pacific Point and one of the sentiments from the set in Espresso.
For a pop of coral, I hand cut a tiny flower from cardstock, added a pearl center, and adhered it to the silhouette. I've seen a number of people use pearls and flowers to decorate stamped silhouettes, and I think it will be fun to play with different embellishments for this stamp.
I rounded one corner of the main panel and added two more pearls, then placed it on a mat of Pacific Point cardstock. The card base is Early Espresso with a strip of Berry Sorbet to balance the coral flower. I popped the main panel up on foam dots to give it a little bit of of dimension.
Cardstock: Stampin' Up! (Early Espresso, Pacific Point), Papertrey Ink (Berry Sorbet, white)
Stamps: Papertrey Ink (Iconic Images)
Ink: Stampin' Up! (Pacific Point, Early Espresso), Clearsnap (Seaglass)
Tools: We R Memory Keepers (Corner Chomper)
Accessories: Michaels (pearls)
Thanks for your visit today! Have a happy Tuesday!
