Less is More #415

Hi everyone! It's Saturday and time for a new challenge over at Less Is More! We have a colour challenge for you -


I went a BIT overboard with this colour scheme. Once I started, I couldn't stop!

Card #1
(using sponsor's Starlequin stamp set)
I embossed the background stamp, then blended a combination of red and raspberry watercolours using my Zigs. A strip of grey (silver) mirror card gave it a nice edge. I stamped and embossed the sentiments with grey (silver) powder.

Card #2
I embossed the flowers from our sponsor's Pretty Posie set using grey (silver) powder. I coloured them with the same zig markers as above then die cut them. They have been popped up with foam tape.

Card #3
I embossed a stencil with grey (silver) powder and cut the panel down to suit my card. Die cut the Happy sentiment, embossed the Anniversary sentiment then added some glitter dots to finish up. I made this card for my son and DIL's 1st wedding anniversary :)

Card #4
I created this panel with two different brusho colours using the smooshing technique. I used the same Happy die cut and added some grey enamel dots this time.

Our terrific sponsors are -


I hope to see you at the challenge blog :)
