Happy Wednesday!
Well it is supposed to rain most of today. We need the rain so I am not complaining. Just means more time to devote to crafting.
Wednesday is our day for our color coach blog hop. This week we were to use
Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery, Bashful Blue
OR
Pretty in Pink, Marina Mist, Daffodil Delight
I decided to use the second set of colors. I combined it with the sketch challenge at Red Hot Stampers Sketch Challenge .
I knew I wanted to use the Summer Solstice flower so this sketch was perfect for it. I did some embossing also. I used the Fancy Fan embossing folder on the colored strip and the Simply Scored tool to add some diagonal stripes on the black cardstock. The centers of the flower were made by using sticky strip and cutting out a circle. I then poured on black glitter. Here is my creation.

Love the striped paper you made, very unique. Nice card with nice added touches.
Great job, Robbie! Fun to use the colors on black! It sure made your flowers POP!
Very Pretty! Love the color combination and the sponged strip; perfect! Thanks for playing along with the Red Hot Stampers Sketch Challenges.
Robbie, it looks like the flowers are springing right out of a rainbow. The black base looks stunning with the color combo. TFS
Robbie, I like the way you blended the colors. It's a simple card, but very nice.
Lovely color combination, Robbie. 🙂 The black background really makes the flowers pop! Thanks for playing with the Red Hot Stampers.
