Color Challenge #1

Here's my entry for the Color Challenge at The Memory Nest!

First, I just want to say that participating in this challenge is what gave me the final push to create a blog. I'd been debating it for a while, and this challenge looked like too much fun to miss.

It's a pretty simple card. I used a premade ivory colored card (with a matching envelope). On top of that, I placed strips of brown cardstock, topped with a beautiful green, blue, brown and ivory floral cardstock. This is one of my favorite pieces of patterned cardstock I've ever owned, and I wish I'd bought more than one sheet! Below that, I stamped "Just a Note" in green ink, and thankfully it turned out. Stamping directly onto cards always makes me nervous. Next to that, I attached two glittery blue flowers with green felt covered brads in their centers.

Supplies I Used (or similar ones):
card and envelope: Unknown
cardstock: Bazzill
patterned cardstock: Unknown
acrylic stamp: Unknown
pigment ink: Martha Stewart
glittery flowers: Petaloo
felt covered brads: Unknown

Looks like in the future I need to keep better track of who makes the supplies I use! If you really like this card, it just so happens to be available in my Etsy shop! Click here to view it in the shop.
