Guesting at Color Hues Color Challenge
Hi friends. Today I'm guest designer over at Color Hues Color Challenge. The colors Smokey Blue and Sage Green really tested me, but I accepted the challenge and hopefully you'll like what I came up with.
I stamped the background using a super old Heidi Swapp background stamp using brown ink on cream card stock as my neutral colors. I added just a bit of distressing around the outside edges of the card front.
The flowers are from Concord & 9th. I added a bit of glitter to add texture and sparkle.
I do hope you'll take a quick minute to pop over to Color Hues Color Challenge and see what their fine design team came up with to inspire you with.
Thanks to Nancy and the team for having me as a guest. I sure enjoyed the challenge!

This is such a pretty card, Birgit. The flowers are so pretty with their bits of sparkle, and I think the script background paper really was a nice touch! Happy to have you at Color Hues.
Congrats on the Guest Gig! Love your background topped with your pretty panel and beautiful florals. You used the colors perfectly! This is FAB!
Your brown and cream script background is a lovely stage for your star-of-the show floral panel. You've highlighted the challenge colours beautifully. So delighted to have you as our guest designer!

The text backgropund is the perfect foil for your pretty blooms Birgit, you definately rose to the challenge! Thanks for being our GD this time. :)
Birgit, congratulations on your win and for being the GD at Color Hues! Your card using these colors is gorgeous - it's funny that these 'super old' stamps never lose their freshness IMHO!

These are beautiful colors, practically neutral in my book, and so pretty together. You did beautifully with your card and I love everything about it, front to back. Congratulations on your guest spot, Birgit!
