Capturing Smiles for Color Dare #713

pairing Capturing Smiles and Notes of Spring stamp sets

Here is Color Dare Challenge #713

I saw Soft Seafoam, Fresh Freesia, and Daffodil Delight.  My neutral color is Basic Gray.

For this card, I paired the images from the Capturing Smiles Bundle with the adorable goose from Notes of Spring.

To create the camera elements, I stamped the camera and lens images onto Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper and Soft Sea Foam cardstock using Basic Gray ink. For added interest, I stamped the smaller camera background tone-on-tone with Soft Sea Foam ink.

Next, I created the goose using a two-step stamping technique with Daffodil Delight ink. First, I inked the solid image, stamped it off once, and then stamped the image without reinking to achieve a softer, muted color. Then, I stamped the detailed image in full-strength Daffodil Delight ink to add definition and contrast.

Finally, I embellished the card with Sunset Sparkle Gems. Although it’s difficult to see in the photo, the gems feature a delicate Fresh Freesia tint that beautifully complements the Color Dare palette.

I hope you’ll join in the fun! Color challenges are a great way to spark creativity and try color combinations you might not normally choose.

Create your project, share it on your favorite social media platform—blog, Facebook, Instagram, and more—then link your creation on the Color Dare site.

I’d love to see what you create!
