The first card came together in a flash, because I had an "outtake" of my color blocked card from last week's CAS challenge sitting on my desk, and it had pink and green color blocks. I again stamped the dress form and sentiment that I used on my other recent card, added some pink and green background paper and layered all onto a white card. Bazinga!
I dug into my drawer of paper scraps for the next card and found some delicate looking striped and floral paper in white (well, cream), celery and pink. They looked a little lonely floating on the big white card so I added another layer of a celery green paper that has a subtle texture design, which made the prints work better. Keeping it simple, I stamped the text with a Michael's dollar bin stamp using Colorbox pink pigment and embossed with clear powder. It made the image show up much better and even "pop" a little. I layered the sentiment onto a slightly darker green scrap, and finished off with a dollar store flower held together with a Making Memories pink flower brad.
Pretty happy with the end results of both cards, and it always feels good to use up scraps and "out-takes"!
Thanks for looking!
