My Belated Birthday card is my card for Color Throw Down #84 using colors taken with teal, black, sky blue and tangerine tango.
The recipe is:
Stamps: Stamp in Up flower cart, Stampin Up message
Inks: Memento black, Stampin Up black writer, Stampin Up Water Color wonder crayons
Punches: Martha Stewart hydrangea border, Marvy Uchida notched corner (or notched scallop)
Card stock: white base, Bazzill Basics in Island Breeze, Cyan Cover, Tropical Breeze
Stickles: Frosted lace
Ribbon: Archivers
Having used two shades of teal and a light blue, I felt I covered that part of the challenge. My tangerine/red flowers and the black outlines and ink are my part for the rest. It surely is a brightly colored image and I added color to the message to coordinate with the flowers. The rest of how I put it together is easy peasy. I did pop the watering can, the pot of red tulips and the basket of purple flowers up for dimensional perspective. I also used the C3 Copic to add shadows in various places on the cart and under it. Since the recipient doesn't speak much English, I added the Spanish word "celebrar" (celebrate) to the upper right corner. Thanks for taking a peek.
