By a happy coincidence Embellish's embossed flowers colour trends challenge has overlapped with
Casual Fridays embossing challenge. So I used the colours and embossed flowers from Embellish and kept my design clean and simple for Casual Fridays!
I used my new spiral notebook page again for my focal point of a flower from Papertrey Ink's everyday classics stamped in cranberry pigment ink and then clear embossed. This was paired with the stem from flower fusion 4 which I stamped in grey. The splash of green came from some lovely peapod twine from The Twinery. All on a sahara sand card base with a bit of text paper to add interest.
The flower embossed beautifully and is such a lovely deep red. In this photo I tried to catch the light so you can see the embossing better.
I'm also going to put this in the Papercrafts gallery this month - the theme is girlfriends. And one final one, A Passion for Papertrey are having an anything goes challenge.
I think that's it for me today, but call by tomorrow for my CASE study challenge post!
