Just Us Girls #580 - Color Week

Hi friends!  I'm the hostess over at Just Us Girls for the Color Week challenge.  I chose yellow, coral, and raspberry.  I correlated these colors to Distress inks squeezed lemonade, abandoned coral, and picked raspberry.

 

I purchased the April Hero Arts kit because I really liked the three stencils included in it.  I used all three stencils, using a different challenge color for each one.  I started with a larger piece of paper and realized I could make two mini slimline cards by cutting it in half, so I did!  I just changed out the sentiments and used different flowers on them.  The sentiments were die cut from black cardstock and I die cut the outline from vellum.

I added a yellow piece of cardstock behind the main piece to add more color.  Both cards are spritzed with shimmer spritz and added crystals as well. 

I wanted to try another idea I had.  This time the coral and raspberry inks were stenciled using the same stencil.  I just turned it to create the circle designs.  Then I used the line stencil and neon glitz paste in yellow.  The flower is from the same die set and I used a different sentiment and used white cardstock for the outline instead of vellum like I did on the previous two cards.

Thanks for stopping by!
