winter blues thank you

This is my second post today, please scroll down for my there she goes challenge card.

Moxie Fab are highlighting the current navy blue trend with their cure for the winter blues challenge. I immediately bookmarked this as "one to do" and then promptly got distracted until I came across an image on the {design seeds} website. I love this website both for it's photographs and colour palettes. I just wish my cardstock and inks came in as many hues! Anyway, here's my winter blues card.

Pin It
Supplies - Stamps - Hero Arts thank you messages; Inks - Versamark; Card - Stampin' Up night of navy, lucky limeade; Die - Memory Box prim poppy

A crisp CAS one. I die cut the lovely, delicate Memory Box flowers out of the navy card mat and pieced in with a bright green and crisp white. A simple white embossed sentiment to finish it off.


I lifted the white flowers with dimensional adhesive to give a touch of interest.

Finally, here's the {design seeds} palette. Isn't that poppy gorgeous!

  7. These look like the "Schneeglocken" that are just starting to bloom in my garden!

    What a show stopper card. Can't believe how delicate that die is. Perfect sentiment to go with it and killer when set off by that gorgeous navy CS.

    Love your work. Can't get your vellum butterfly card out of my mind. Linked to you here:
