My card today does not use the typical Thanksgiving Holiday colors but was a color challenge I did with Brian King this past summer using So Saffron, Flirty Flamingo and Cinnamon Cider. While the colors are not traditional, the sentiment of feeling blessed is just perfect for this time of year.
Brian is so great with color combos, but this was actually my first ever color challenge and I may have cheated a bit and threw in some green, who knew! I started with a So Saffron card base and added a layer of Cinnamon Cider 4 x 5 1/4. The Flirty Flamingo Layer is cut at 4 5/8 x 3 3/8 and I stamped the rose from To a Wild Rose set on Whisper White using our Flirty Flamingo ink. Two of the roses are stamped directly on the piece of Whisper White and the one in the middle is cut out using the rose die from the bundle.
I stamped the Blessed sentiment in memento black and added some basic jeweled rhinestones. I also decided to decorate the inside of the card with a strip of all the colors in the challenge and some more rhinestones. The leaves are stamped with Old Olive ink and the sentiment is also from the To A Wild Rose set.
I hope you liked this card and feel inspired to use this color combo from Brian King to create something beautiful today. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you will leave a comment and stop back tomorrow for some more crafty cards! Stamping Hugs and Blessings, Renae.
