First Color Challenge! As You See It #005

Hi there!!!  Are you enjoying my Friday posts for the As You See It Design Team?  I’m sure enjoying making these projects with the awesome inspiration from the challenge blog.  I combined this week’s color challenge with a few other ones so I’ll list those below.  🙂

Super simple card for you today!  I LOVE the sketch from over at Retro Sketches and I thought a simple layout would be best for this bright and funky color combination of Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry, and Gumball Green.  I only used ONE stamp set on this project!  (Ok, that’s like, a miracle for me!)  I’ve been loving the fun and surprise of getting a new Best of set each month featuring a theme and best selling stamps fitting that theme from the 25 years SU! has been in business!!!  The set I used here was the Best of Autumn!  LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!  *Side Note:  The Best of Christmas released on October 1st and is going to have to be mine!!!  It’s so awesome!

As far as details, I have just a couple here.  The greeting was stamped in VersaMark and heat embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder onto the Gumball Green cardstock.  I added a couple of pearls to mimic the dots in the sketch.  Then I used a temporary adhesive to layer the Gumball Green cardstock piece onto my leaf stamped Whisper White panel and used straight piercing template from the Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack (along with a Paper Piercer and Stampin’ Pierce Mat) to pierce holes that would outline the Gumball Green piece.  It’s easier to see in person.  Then I popped the Gumball Green piece up on Stampin’ Dimensionals and onto the Whisper White piece.  This whole panel then was glued to a Pumpkin Pie card base.  I tied some Whisper White Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon around the top to finish it off!  (I did a bow instead of a knot this time to add a little more weight on the left side of the card to balance it a bit more.)

Head on over to the As You See It Challenge Blog and play along!!!

This card was entered into challenges at: Retro Sketches, Tuesday Throwdown, Dream Valley Challenges, Moving Along with the Times, Creative Craft Challenges 2, Pile It On Challenge, and Loves Rubber Stamps.
