Color Inspiration #53

CI53colors

So my first attempt at a challenge this week led me to Kristina’s Color Inspiration #53.  These are really bold colors and make me step outside of my box.  As I tend to do, I went to my stash of patterned paper to see if I could get some sort of direction for this card.

Luckily, I found a Die Cuts With a View stack with the red and yellow patterned paper, plus solid blue cardstock to match.  The bird is also cut out from some paper in the same stack.  I used some Sakura Glaze pens to add a little glaze to the center of the flowers on the patterned paper and also to the little cut out bird.  This helped to give it a little dimension and really made the colors a bit bolder.  I used some white embossing powder on the “thanks” stamp.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.
