We have a bright color challenge this week over at the Nacho Average site: Strawberry Slush, Coastal Cabana and Crisp Cantaloupe!
Here’s my contribution:
These three colors are retiring on June 2nd. I’m so sad. The 2013-2105 In Colors quickly became my favorites. Strawberry Slush, Coastal Cabana, Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding and Baked Brown Sugar. I used them a lot, and I will miss them!
So to go along with the retiring colors, I used mostly retiring items to create this card: Says it All stamp set, Feathers Framelits, Strawberry Slush and Coastal Cabana Thick Baker’s Twine and 2013-2015 In Color Sequins.
To create the feather stencil, I cut the feather out of Whisper White card stock using my Big Shot and Feathers Framelits. I adhered 1/4″ wide strips of the challenge colors on a smaller piece of card stock and then set the feather stencil on top. I added speckles from Gorgeous Grunge (not retiring!) using Coastal Cabana ink. I added the In Color Sequins using Mini Glue Dots. Bright, cheery and easy to do!
