Hello crafty peeps ~ I'm popping in with a quick post with a card I made for the Color Hues Color Challenge, using the colors
PURPLE and ORANGE.
I recently purchased this Wild Blooms stencil from Papertrey Ink, after seeing my dear friend Marcia use it to make so many pretty cards.
I stuck with orange colors for the flower petals and purple for the center of the flowers. The leaves are done in two shades of grey.
I turned this into a flat shaker card by recycling a piece of packaging from a stamp set. I added iridescent and silver sequins to the inside pocket and a simple label sentiment. The ornate frame is from Pinkfresh Studio.
I'll be adding this card to the following challenges:
Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes
Just Us Girls ~ Anything Goes Stencil Week
Thanks for stopping by!

Marcia has great taste and so do you, choosing that wonderful stencil, and you've created such a beautiful card with it, Birgit! The orange and purple flowers look lovely and I like the subtle gray used for the leaves and stems. The gorgeous frame is the perfect way to finish off your lovely card! Thank you so much for joining us at Color Hues!
Beautiful flowers, love the colors you chose to use. Pretty framing you used for it too, neat idea to use it as a shaker card too!
I was just looking into this stencil set the other day... you might force me to push that button, Birgit! This is simply lovely, my friend!
Oops, sorry... forgot to thank you for playing along at Just Us Girls! ;)
Beautiful card, Birgit! I love the look of stencils. And the shaker element is such a great addition. I love the fact that you recycled the plastic for that. The color combination is wonderful too. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Word Art Wednesday! We always appreciate you!
Oooh, this is pretty! I love how you used the pale shades of gray for the stems and leaves to give it such a soft look as well as keeping it neutral for the color challenge. I've always wanted to try a flat shaker. Heaven knows I've got plenty of sequins!
Oh those posies are pretty! Love the petal colors, the stem and foliage in grey looks fantastic! How clever. Looks like a foggy Cape Cod morning (or Maine for that matter!) Love this!
Beautiful card! Love how you used the colors and created a soft beautiful floral shaker! Thank you so much for playing along with us over at the Color Hues Challenge!
