Friendly Foliage Thinking of You for #TGIFC550 Color Challenge

Happy Friday!! I have a Friendly Foliage Thinking of You color challenge card for you today for #TGIFC550.

Our challenge this week is a color challenge (something that I love!). The three colors; Crumb Cake, Calypso Coral, and Old Olive make an easy combination to work with.

I immediately thought of flowers when I saw these three colors, so I grabbed some of the products that just came out on Tuesday. The Friendly Foliage stamp bundle had the perfect flowers, and the Brushed With Beauty DSP had the colors that I needed.

To make the card

• Begin with a 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” piece of Basic Beige cardstock, score and fold at 4-1/4” to form your card base.
• Adhere a 5-1/2” x 4-1/4” piece of Brushed with Beauty DSP to the card base. Then, adhere another piece in a different design, measuring 1-1/4” x 5-1/2” towards the left side.

• Stamp the floral image on a piece of Basic Beige cardstock using Calypso Coral ink.
• Cut the image out with the dies, as well as the following: a rectangle with the 3rd largest die in Very Vanilla and a rectangle with the smallest die in Crumb Cake using the Textured Notes dies, and a circle in Basic Beige cardstock with the 2nd smallest die using the Stylish Shapes dies.

• Adhere the circle to the bottom-left corner of the large rectangle and attach them to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• Attach the floral image on top of the rectangle using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

• Stamp your sentiment on the Crumb Cake rectangle using Crumb Cake ink.
• Adhere the sentiment to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

• Hold two pieces of Old Olive Linen Thread together, tie a bow, trim the ends, and attach it to the circle using a Mini Glue Dot.
• Attach three Low-Profile Sparkle Dots as shown.
