Peacock, Kraft & Ruby Colour Dare Challenge #310

My second blog for the design team the Colour Dare Colour Challenge for #310. I found it really interesting that this post is my 110th post on my blog, so those numbers actually line up nicely.

This week's challenge #310 was to use Peacock, Kraft, Ruby with optional Gold.

Guidelines on Neutrals:  White, Cream, Black, Gray, Kraft and Brown(s) are free to use.  Unless they're listed in the challenge then you need to use them (like Kraft is, in this challenge).

I pulled out my My Type of Note (pic below) stamp set and I used Peacock ink to stamp the typewriter. I LOVE Peacock, its one of my absolute favourite colours. I then inked Ruby to stamp the "thinking about YOU!" sentiment and the love hearts. I stamped all of this on White daisy cardstock and matted it with Kraft Paper on top of a White Card with Envelope. I also made a pennant banner with the Kraft Paper and used 3D foam tape to give it a 3D finish. I used thin foam tape to matt the white daisy onto the Kraft paper. 

To finish the heart trail floating up the card I added small Gold Pearls, as my optional Gold accent. This gold in the pearls really blends in well with the Kraft paper.

    Love your little trail of hearts and gems, CAS and nicely layed out card. Don't you love that thin tape...it's my favorite because it gives just enough dimension and can still use several layers and it stuffs in the envelope nicely.

      Thanks for saying so, I enjoyed making the hearts trail up like that, I wanted them to be sent like a bubble drifting upwards all the way to the recipient.

      Thanks Catherine, I had fun with the trail of hearts too. I wanted them to be floating to the recipient of the card, so they knew I was thinking of them all the way from where I "typed" it to where they get it.
