Welcome!
Today's card was created for the Color Throwdown #766
I went a little bit out of the box for me on this card.
I wanted to use some of my new stamps from Unity Stamps ( a favorite company of mine) so I chose to use the 3 Circles and the sentiment from the October KOM (Golden glow) and the Wheat image from the September KOM (Harvest Hues) along with the October Background of the Month (Woodgrain Whisper)
Click to enlarge image. For some reason the screen is giving off a more turquoise look to the blue but it's really not turquoise.
Details: Card Base - Only Orange (retired SU) then a layer of Balmy Blue card stock stamped with the background stamp in Balmy Blue.
The Wheat was stamped on Very Vanilla card stock with Crumb Cake Ink. Then I stamped the circles over it with Only Orange & Balmy Blue inks. I distressed the edges with the Only Orange ink and a distressing tool. The sentiment was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I added 3 light blue gems and mounted the panel on an angle with foam mounting tape to complete the card.
I'm not sure what style of card you'd call this, Grunge, Distressed, Eclectic? - What would you say the style is?
Anyway I really like how it turned out and hope you do as well.
No clue what you would call that style but I like it. I really love the color combination too.
ReplyDeleteGreat fall card! I would say distressed (the edges) and eclectic (wheat and patterned circles) but any way you look at it, it's a great card
ReplyDeleteI call this card artistic and I really like it! It has a distressed and somewhat earthy quality which adds to the art of it. Love the patterned circles and the colors. It's just way cool!
ReplyDeleteThis is so creative and a clever use of this week's color choices for the Color Throwdown challenge! Thanks for playing along!
