I stamped directly on the embossed cardstock with Raspberry Ripple inside the smaller mosaics. I just love these shapes--really clean but still ornate, ya know?
I kept the inside super simple for a hand-written note. Just added a few more outline mosaics with alternating colors for the center. While these colors, on their own, are very rich and regal when paired with white they look crisp and faintly patriotic! Perfect for summer--since that's what it feels like around here! I hope you're feeling some warmer weather where you are for Mother's Day today. Please drop by The Paper Players to check out the rest of the Design Team samples, I know you will enjoy it! Then come on along and join in the fun before our challenge closes on Friday, May 17th at Noon (PDT). Hope to see you there!

Beautiful card Nance-It is striking but still simple-i really like how you have taken the same shape from the embossing and made a feature of them :)

Gorgeous card Nance, I love the new EF, punch and stamp, all with the same pattern. I really like the colors and the way you draped the one punch over the sentiment banner, looks fabulous! The C&S inside is perfect as well.
ReplyDeleteHAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to you too!
Luv,
Mom

Nance such a striking color combo for this matching trio. Very nice. I agree with your mom about overlapping the sentiment.

Love this, Nance! You've created a fun pattern, and these colors really pop on the white. Great card!
ReplyDeleteThis set seems to be quite popular with the Paper Players today! I almost used it myself! LOVE your pattern, and how you stamped on the inside as well! It's so fun to have everything coordinate--embossing folder, punch and stamps--so cool!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome card! You are right about the stamps being clean but ornate! I love your layout too! :-)
ReplyDeleteI agree, very striking card, Nance. I like how you stamped on the embossed background, too, it adds another layer of depth. Hugs :) Sandy
ReplyDeleteNance, my initial card used this set, too and when i went to load my card noticed that several of us had chosen this set this week. So, went and made another card :-) I think this set is perfect for this strong color scheme and you really rocked it! I love that you focused the mosaic on the one side of the card and left the white space on the right.
ReplyDeleteFabulous!

Such a fun card, Nance! I love the layout and the inside of the card just keeps the party going from the front. You stamped that inside "border" perfectly, too. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThese colors are perfect for the mosaic look! I've still to ink this set up!
