Stampin' Up! Australia - Stampin' Up! Flower Shop - Color Coach Card #116

Cherry Cobbler #1

Hi

Welcome to this week's Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge.


I am participating in a fun Pinterest challenge too this week where Stampin' Up! have challenged us to use a selection of punches on our projects. The punches on my card are the Pansy Punch and the Hearts Border Punch. 

I used Color Coach colours of Cherry Cobbler, Night of Navy and Calypso Coral. They are all quite strong colours so I used a lot of white here to give it balance. The centre of my flower is a pom pom from the Calypso Coral pom pom trim. :)




Here is the sketch for this week's challenge:

    I knew when I saw this color combo that it was the good ole' Color Coach again! I like that you balanced the strong combo with a lot of white! The heart embossed background and pom pom flower center are such fun touches!

    I love all the patterns and texture of this card Alison, which work so well with the colour combo because of all that lovely white space. This card has such a contemporary feel - great job!
