Hello everyone!

Today I’m playing along in the Color Throwdown challenge which has a combo of blue, navy and yellow.

Whenever I use my Birch Press Design’s Wispy Blooms Contour Layers die set, I always mention how much I coveted it when I first saw it. Sadly I don’t seem to play with it enough so I was very pleased to think of it today when I was planning this card. I coloured the images using distress inks and set to one side to work on my background. The blue frame is part of the Spellbinders Infinity Punch & Pierce plate die which I picked up in the early August sale. I also bought the Stylish Ovals which coordinate so nicely but they oversold on their sale stock so they refunded those sadly. It kind of put me off using the plate die, especially when I saw the die set was in stock at full price. I’m glad I finally got round to using it!

I applied some more distress ink to the edges of my card base to add more navy contrast to my card and adhered the frame. I then stencilled some glitter paste to the white background to add something a little extra! Once that was dry I adhered my blooms and added a die cut sentiment by The Ton.

Thanks for stopping by!
