Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #13

Hi guys! It's that time again! Time for another Raspberry Suite Color Challenge from Dawn! If you haven't checked this out yet- what are you waiting for!? She has the coolest color combos and most of them leave me scratching my head for a few days and then using colors together that I would have never thought to. And in a good way! So, I got a head start on this color challenge! I have been making time every day to create something- even if it's a super simple card that comes together in 10 minutes, and I think it's really helping me! Ideas seem to come to me a lot faster- I'm not spending as much time sitting there looking at my supplies! LOL!

Anyway, here's my card for this challenge! I used white, spring moss, berry sorbet, and pure poppy (all PTI) for this card. I started by choosing spring moss for my base- the paper is all I have from the spring moss collection right now so I thought I'd use it in a big way- and I love this color! I can't wait for the reformulated ink pads to be available on the 15th! I stamped the printed text from Background Basics: Text Style on the base with snow white ink (I can't seem to make anything with text anymore!)

I stamped polka dots with berry sorbet ink on white paper and cut out five petal shapes. I knew I wanted a floral accent and I haven't been able to get any floral focal point stamp sets yet. I layered the petals for a pretty little blossom! I think it turned out pretty well!

I also dream of pure poppy buttons, but they won't be available until the 15th, so I pulled out a red sharpie and colored the border of this white button!

The sentiment "all things grow with love" is from the Everday Button Bits set- all of the sentiments in this set are super cute!



And here's a close up of my little flower blossom!


I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with! Thanks for stopping by!
