Hello there! I’m going back to the Holiday 2018 Catalog with First Frost, which has carried over to spring. I love the versatile DistINKtive images in this set and coordinating die-cuts.
By simply changing up and out colors, you can alter the parameters of design from season to season. Here is a clean and simple card I made in August 2018 with the same set in more of a regal color palette.
Today’s card is very upbeat with Balmy Blue, Highland Heather, Mint Macaron, Petal Pink, and Smoky Slate. I accented most of the images with Smoky Slate via a sponge dauber for the center of the flowers and using the Stampin’ Write marker applied directly to the foliage to define the branches rather than all one color. I think it makes a tremendous difference in presentation.
Here, we have some great definition of images and dimension that’s really eye-catching with a stacked die sentiment. I altered one sentiment from Humming Along by performing a little “surgery” on it as I wanted the scripty “you” that had the appropriate size for my die-cut. You have to make it all work with what you have. This is why I’m a big believer in shopping your stash and using it all up. Experimenting outside of the box is a good thing.
Don’t forget about the giveaways I have going on HERE and HERE.
I hope that you enjoyed today’s project. Thank you so much for stopping by to visit. Have a great day and God bless.
