Hope everyone is doing okay! We are experiencing some beautiful spring weather and we are able to spend more time outdoors which is a great bonus for us. Doing a bit of tennis this week and also a bit of walking with the husband...always a bonus!
We have another challenge starting over at Less is More. Our theme for this week is to use 3 pastels. Pastel's are a tricky one for me as I'm typically drawn to more bright and vibrant colors. But always good to go out of your comfort zone to see what you can come up with. Here's my take on the challenge...
I started by stamping my flowers and die cutting them. I then cut my main card panel and cut the rectangles in them. At that point it was all just a bit of stamping and popping up the flowers on foam tape.
As a finishing touch, I added a little pearl to each flower.
Here's a close up of the card. All in all pretty simple.
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

This is absolutely gorgeous, Susan! What a stylish design with the formal, regular panels but given a touch of pretty fun with the beautiful florals. I love it! <3 Enjoy the tennis and walking... Have a fab weekend! x
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty and elegant Susan and you'd never know you felt out of your comfort zone with these more delicate tones. I know exactly how you feel as I prefer bold pops of colour too. Glad you're having great weather for tennis and have another fun week. x
