Here is this week’s CYCI color challenge:
And here’s my card:
This is my first official entry as a CanYouCaseIt Design Team Member. I’m thrilled to be a part of such a talented group!
After stamping the flowers from the Remarkable You stamp set in black Staz-On ink on a piece of Watercolor Paper, I used an Aqua Painter and Early Espresso, Mint Macaron, and Hello Honey inks to watercolor the flowers and background. I was trying for that messy sort of watercolor look, but I still kept pretty close to the lines. I guess I’ll have to practice being messier – something I never thought I would say!

I used the Greetings Thinlits Dies to cut the word HELLO from a piece of Hello Honey card stock. I backed it with a piece of Mint Macaron card stock on which I drew lots of dots with an Early Espresso Stampin’ Write Marker.
An Early Espresso mat and a Hello Honey card base finish the card.
I made a Mint Macaron envelope using the 2015-2017 In Color Envelope Paper and the Envelope Punch Board. I adhered the leftover die cut HELLO with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (still my favorite adhesive!)
Here’s what I used:

Candy – the effect you achieved in the background is really quite pretty. These flowers really stand out here. Nice way to use these colors! I’m working on my card today.
I’m glad you’re joining in the challenge. I can’t wait to see what you come up with. I know it’ll be spectacular.
Candy, fabulous card and that background “HOT” 🙂 Eva
