Blue Rose Bouquet
Hi friends! I hope you're having a great day! A new challenge begins today at Fusion Card Challenge! It's a great place to play and you'll love this challenge because there are three ways to play.. you can play along with the sketch, be inspired by the photo, or FUSE them together and play with BOTH! You know me.. always attracted to what I see.. and I spy a GORGEOUS blue bouquet of ROSES! Flowers are always my favorite subject so I'm running with that! There are so many beautiful layered florals in stamps and dies and I have LOTS in my collection. Maybe the photo isn't inspiring you? That's ok.. you can still play along with the sketch. And this time there is a THIRD way to play.. use the color chart and make it a color challenge!
There's some new layered florals in town and they're from Birch Press Design. You're going to love these beauties and the best part is that they're easy to mix and match. Just as an example.. the flowers I used are called Winsome Rose, but I took the leaves from the Dainty Rose die set.
The Winsome Rose is a 3 die layer set. An easy way to cut LOTS of flowers fast is to cut all three dies from three shades of cardstock. Next just layer the cuts and bam! you have three pretty florals that are each uniquely different, but still look great together!
My background is a lacy panel die from the Viola set. I layered the die cut over a Tumbled Glass Distress Inked panel. I thought a small sentiment was best so that I didn't cover up any of those pretty dies. This one is from the Birch Press Happy Lingo stamp set. The finishing touch is a few Fairy Drops arranged to look like dew drops. Now it's your turn! I can't wait to see how you interpret the inspiration photo OR the sketch. Maybe you need a little more inspiration? Check out designs from the rest of the team. Just click on their names below to jump to their blogs.
I hope I see you at Fusion Card Challenge! It's a great place to play and make new friends! I'm always inspired by the team as well as the linked up designs!
