AAA Colourful - Colourboard #6

 Hello Crafty Friends,

It's the 15th of the month and you know what that means....... time for a new Colourboard challenge at AAA Colourful, and do we have a beautiful board for you to be inspired by!




We want you to take inspiration from the board, and the most prominent colours on your creation should be the colours of the board. You may also use neutrals like black, white, greys, browns and skin tones. We welcome cards, tags, ATCs, scrapbook pages, journaling pages...... well any paper craft basically, in any style and for any occasion.

This time the colours of the colourboard inspired me to create a sunset birthday card for a cat lover. I hope you like it!

Birthday Cheer

 Hello,

Inspired by the July challenge - Fabulous Flowers - at AAA Birthday, and a few other great challenges, I just had to create a second card on the theme.





I fell in love with this postage die as soon as I saw it, and all the cute, beautiful and fun creations I've seen on social media, so in the end I just had to get one for myself. This is my first time playing with the die, and I just love it! It's so versatile, and I have so many ideas on how to use it.

For this card I paired it with some beautiful die cut flowers, and a little bee. I started by die cutting all the pieces for the flowers and the postage background panel. I ink blended the postage panel in a soft blue using Distress oxide. Assembled the flowers, which I'd cut from coloured cardstock and added some ink to, and addhered them to the postage panel. I stamped a few post related images and a birthday greeting to the postage panel. I addhered the panel to a card base after giving it a frame/background in the same colour as the flowers. I felt there was something missing, so I die cut a bee, assembled it and added it to the card.

I hope you like it, and that you are inspired to play along with us at AAA Birthday. For more information on the challenge please see my previous post or the AAA Birthday Card challenge blog
