Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #3
April 06, 2009
I love these colors too! These are the colors that I want to redo my kitchen in. Maybe I should ask Kristina and/or Dawn to help me redecorate my house...LOL! Anyway, when I first saw Dawn's inspiration piece, I was thinking about using some Making Memories paper that looked a lot like the fabrics. But, instead I decided to play around with the Papertrey Guide Lines Two set again. I love this set! I was tempted to try and find something to layer on top of the background, but I decided that it should be the focal point. I also found some ribbon that really made the design pop. I really like how this turned out, so I hope you enjoy it too. By the way, I first tried stamping on top of Kraft cardstock, but the Craft Inks weren't opaque enough. So, if you have a recommendation of good opaque inks that work with any type of stamps, please post a comment to let me know. Thanks!
My card:
Stamps: PTI Guide Lines Two, PTI Damask Designs
Ink: Classic Pretty in Pink, Cameo Coral, Riding Hood Red, Sahara Sand
Paper: Kraft, Very Vanilla, Candy Lane DSP
Accessories: Ribbon from my stash (I think it might be SEI?)
