Well, this was a challenging color combination. I like Pool Party and Blushing Bride together, but throw in Melon Mambo and I really wasn't sure what I could make that would look good. So I dug through my stamp sets and came up with the Grown with Love stamp set and Garden Grown Framelits.
For the cardbase, I used thick Whisper White (love it!), then the first layer is Pear Pizazz run through the Petal Burst embossing folder. I colored the Happy for You stamp with Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride, Pool Party and Melon Mambo markers, stamped onto Whisper White then cut out with the a large oval framelit.
The watering can is stamped with Pool Party, cut out with the Garden Grown Framelits and popped up under the bouquet of flowers. I like how it also hangs off the bottom of the oval. The Blushing Bride flowers and the little heart sign are also cut from the Garden Grown Framelits then popped up.
I added the Melon Mambo banner behind everything to bring all the colors together. I think it works!
See what the other design team members did with these fun colors by going to the SSINK blog.
Thanks, and remember to leave us your comments!
You sure made that Melon Mambo work, Cathy! I really love the way it makes your card pop, and like the way your watering can goes over the edges!
