July 2020 Kre8tors Blog Hop Theme: Tropical Nights

Welcome to the July 2020 Kre8tors blog Hop!

Our theme for this month is a Color Challenge. We have a photo that was used to give us our colors for this challenge. The colors are Basic Black, Basic Gray, Rococo Rose, Night of Navy & So Saffron. I have used 4 of the 5 colors in my Project.

I have cased one of Mary Fish's Gate Fold Cards. We are still working on our basement and my design time has seriously been affected. I feel lucky that I was able to put something together for this hop. I have used the Tasteful Touches Bundle to create this project. I really love the coordinating Tasteful Labels Dies. I combined 2 of them on the belly band that holds this card closed.
and the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper works so well for this project too.

I started by stamping my sentiment on some Night of Navy Cardstock using VersaMark Ink and heat embossed it with the White Stampin' Emboss Powder. After Die Cutting the Sentiment I matted it with some Basic Gray Cardstock and used another die to cut it out. The Card Base is Thick Whisper White Card Stock. There are 2 Designer Series Paper Panels matted with Basic Gray Cardstock. The Belly Band is Basic Gray with a Whisper White Layer. The Flowers are stamped with Rococo Rose Ink and the Centers have been Colored with a So Saffron Stampin" Write Marker. I had some Gold Foil Paper that was a good match for the So Saffron ink so I die cut some sprigs from the Sunflowers Dies and poked them in behind the flowers. I tied a bow with the Night Of Navy 1/8 " Ribbon.

I hope you like my take on this Color Challenge.

Now it is time to see what Laura has in store for you today.
