Gorgeous Color with No Coloring!
July 02, 2019
Today we'll create a beautiful card with Gorgeous Color with No Coloring...here it is:
Am I right--isn't that color great....and another super benefit....there's no stamping either! This is one of those cards that you can create is mere minutes when you are in a crush..but the card looks terrific!
The secret sauce is that we are using the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper--it has several sheets with lovely designs...the one used for this card have several images that would work well with the Layering Oval dies and simply layer with a contrasting color with the next sized up oval die.
One last touch really sets off the bird images--that's a touch of Wink of Stella. If you know me for more than 5 minutes--you know I even sparkle up my dreams with a bit of Wink! (Didn't know you could do that? Just stick with me--you'll find tons of great uses for that Wink.)
