CC175 Tender Thoughts



Emily has picked some wonderful soft colors for the Color Combo Challenge #175.
Almost Amethyst, So Saffron and Wild Wasabi - simply beautiful!!!

Since I'm soooo behind on Challenges I thought I would combine this card with the Great Swaps Girls Sketch Challenge #11. You can see it right here.

The card measures 5" x 5" and I have started out with a Whisper White CS. Then I have used a different Stamp from the gorgeous *Innovative Stamp Creations Nature Silhouette I* Set and inked it up with Almost Amethyst, So Saffron and Wild Wasabi Ink Spot's. Next I have slightly *misted* the covered Ink Stamp with water and out came this gorgeous *Watercolored* look.

The image was layered onto a Almost Amethyst and So Saffron CS. Then I have raised it all up with Stampin Dimensionals before I've added it to the Whisper White CS.

To finish the card off I have added the gorgeous looking *Styled Silver* Label Holder and the DS
Wild Wasabi Ribbon from SU. The sentiment is from the same Set and I have inked it in Basic Black.

Hope you like it and don't forget to check out my card below that I have made for the LSP Sewing Challenge!!! ~TFL~
