Color Hues #75 - Guest Designer



I am so excited to be a Guest Designer for the challenge at Color Hues this time around.  Julie B. is our host and has chosen light blue and purple.  Come see all of the inspiration from the team and join in their challenge.
I struggled a little bit with the blue portion of these colors.  Blue is not usually one of my go to colors and I don't seem to have a good light blue ink. But after a couple of tries, I was able to come up with this card and was happy with it.
This is one of my older Pinkfresh sets, Blooming Branch, stamp, stencil and die set.
Using Gina K's inks, Delicate Basket, Poly Glaze with silver foil and Gina K., So Many Sentiments.
Gina K. Pearl Mix.
The shine is prettier in real life.




Thanks for stopping by.

This is so beautiful, Linda! I love everything Pinkfresh, but don't own this lovely Blooming Branch. The background is lovely as well, and I'm anxious to try some of the Poly Glaze foils. We're so happy to have you as a Guest Designer this round!

You may have struggled with the blue but it was worth persisting with. Love the subtle sparkle of your background panel which is a perfect backdrop to your pretty spray. So happy to have you guesting with us this time. :)

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL card Lin!! I had to go check my PFS stash to see if I had this floral set, and I don't...how did that happen?! It is just so pretty and looks perfect in the purple and light blue hues...in fact I really love the blue leaves!! So glad to have you playing along with us for this challenge Lin...you will definitely have inspired our players!! Hugs. 😊

Linda, it's wonderful to have you join CH as guest designer for this challenge! Your floral is gorgeous in the challenge colors - love the light blue you achieved - and I'm equally enamored with the background pattern that sets off the florals so well. Beautiful card!
