Garden Wishes for the Colour Combo Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Colour Combo Blog Hop. If you have hopped over from ….’s blog I bet you loved her project. You are currently visiting Mo Rootes from near Cambridge in the UK.

The colours for this month’s challenge are:

 To recreate the Garden Wishes card, you will need:

Old Olive card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Cherry Cobbler – 5” by 3¼” – rounded upper left corner
Very Vanilla – 4¾” by 3” – rounded upper left corner
Very Vanilla – 5½” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
Scrap Very Vanilla, Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler

To begin I stamped the dandelion image from the Garden Wishes stamp set in Old Olive ink and used Old Olive and So Saffron Blends Markers to colour the image in.

I decided the image needed something more and added a group of small flowers from the Grace’s Garden stamp set in Old Olive ink and coloured them in using the Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive Blends.

The stamped layer was added to the Cherry Cobbler layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I added a strip of Lace Trim to the side of the panel using Tear & Tape before adhering it to the Old Olive card front.

The sentiment from the Garden Wishes stamp set was stamped in Old Olive ink onto scrap Very Vanilla, trimmed out with sharp scissors. I mounted it on a scrap of Old Olive. It looked a little plain so I die cut the sweet edge strip from the Be Mine dies from a scrap of Cherry Cobbler card and cut it to fit.

I used the So Saffron Blends to colour in a trio of Basic Pearls and added them to the card front.
