I'm so excited to post this card, finally. I had seen this design done by another demonstrator with this Petal Passion Designer Series Paper, but after I made the panels, according to their measurements, I found out their measurements were wrong! Ack! So I set them aside and came back to them this weekend. Rather than trying to figure out the right measurements, I went with the tri-panel card I made for my youngest son's birthday. That card can be seen HERE.
Recipe for today's card:
Bermuda Bay - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4
Basic Black - 5" x 3 3/4"
Petal Passion Designer Series Paper - 3 1/2" x 1 1/2"
The Designer Series Paper is simply black and white. The color comes from the Stampin' Blends and they really add some beautiful color to this paper!
I used Calypso Coral, Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie and Pink Pirouette. The background was colored with the light version of Pool Party. A word of advice on coloring. It is very very easy and goes together well, but don't stop in the middle of an open place and then come back to finish. You'll see in the far right panel the background Pool Party has a definite dark spot where I started again.
Thank you for looking in today. I'm sorry this didn't post at midnight, as usual, but hubby and I were playing mechanic trying to get his battery connected back to the truck. No luck, but maybe we'll have better luck later today or tonight.
Happy Monday!
