Floral for Friendship

Color Hues #51- Orange and Green & ORANGE and BLACK

With one challenge calling for Orange and green and another orange and black, I thought of trying to combine one card for both. I’m not sure it worked totally, but it doesn’t really matter in the whole scheme of things. I actually made two cards using this MFT background stamp. When I had finished the first panel and before it was fully dry I thought that I didn’t like it much so I took another piece of CS and this time smooched the paper through the inks drying in between. Distress inks used are Twisted Citron and Carved Pumpkin. When it was fully dry I added the stamped flowers using Forest Green. I quite liked the result but felt it needed some shimmer so I carefully added some Opal Blaze over the flowers and it shimmers quite nicely in reality. Then I used the sentiment stamp from a small gifted to me GKD stamp set and backed it with a bit of black CS before adding it to the layer. I also added few orange gems from my stash. Thanks for taking a look and I wish you a happy weekend.
