MAKING A STATEMENT - Cynthia Stevenson, Stampin Up! Demonstrator

Hi and welcome! Today’s card sure makes a statement with the colours used! Check it out.

It took several practice tries to get to this layout and I love the combination of Yellow on black with the Smoky Slate background wall of Stone & Vine(3D embossing folder 166990).

The flowers were just waiting to be coloured and are just one of the designs in the new and coming soon Artisan Sketched Garden designer series paper. I finished it off with the birthday sentiment from the Lovely Arrangements Bundle(167176).

These colours were chosen by the design team at The Paper Players for this week’s challenge and I did have fun with it.

Here is the list of products used.

The yellow on black, with the pretty embossed Smoky Slate background, look great. Thanks for joining in with my colour challenge this week at The Paper Players.

Cynthia, this is so pretty! I love the embossed background and the scalloped die in black makes your flowers pop. Just perfect. So happy you joined us at The Paper Players this week!
