Hello once again. Cardz 4 Galz has started a new challenge. Sue J has chosen the theme, and she has chosen:

‘pick three colours – purple, orange, black, green – neutrals are allowed‘

Here is my card:

I started by die cutting the floral and foliage elements from Spellbinders die sets, choosing orange flowers, and three tones of purple for other flowers. The same green for the stems and the foliage.

I put them aside to dry emboss the background panel using a Spellbinders embossing folder – some added interest without creating too much detail.

The frame dies are from Pinkfresh Studio – there are very fine and fiddly to adhere – but I managed!

I then played around with the floral arrangement, and added the elements with a mixture of wet glue and 3D foam pieces.

The sentiment is white foiling on a black strip.

I added further interest with some 3D dots – a mixture of purple and dark green – or are they black…..? I can’t remember now, but both colours are included…..

I hope you can come and join us with your creations featuring three – or all four – of the chosen colours. You can see from the Design Team inspiration that many themes are possible. xx
