Carnations for You

 Hello All,

For today I will be joining Freshly Made Sketches, NBUS, and The Color Throwdown. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

This is a new stamp set from Altenew called Carnations. These flowers were my father's favorite and pink was his favorite color (because we all know real men like pink). So I have become fond of them myself.

The flowers were placed without glue then I used a piece of Glad Press and Seal (thank you Jennifer McGuire for the suggestion) and placed it over the layout. Pulling it back up with the layout nicely intact and ready to glue.

This is a layering set from Altenew. I think their layering sets are amazingly realistic. I also used a set of ink cubes by Altenew to make sure the pinks coordinated.
The blue background is a homemade scrap from a few years ago. I thought it added a bit of diversity, texture, and interest to the color challenge.

Challenges Entered:
The Color Throwdown: ctd625
Freshly Made Sketches: FMS468
NBUS: Challenge #22 and Happy New Year!

 

Thank you so much for stopping by and I do appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to spend time with me. Lots of good crafting vibes headed your way. I hope you all have a fantastic day and please stay safe and healthy.
