Hey Everybody,
Diane's color challenge today was to use old olive, misty moonlight and fresh freesia. Dessert was to use designer paper. You can find her challenge here.
I stamped the image and colored it with Copic Markers. I used my SU seasonal labels die to cut out the image. I added the image to my designer series paper then stamped my sentiment. I added the image and sentiment with dimensionals. I added a misty moonlight border around the image panel to make it stand out a bit against the background paper. This will go on a dinner tray at a local hospital.

I stamped the image and colored it with Copic Markers, then die cut it with the seasonal labels dies. I cut another from blackberry bliss to add behind the image. I cut the paper horizontally so it would form a border.
I stamped the sentiment and die cut a blackberry and white set of words. I layered the words, then added white gel pen over the words so they'd be easier to see. I added clear Wink of Stella on the sentiment. This will go to a local nursing home for the residents to use.

What are considered Neutral colors?
We use all the colors that Stampin'-Up has designated as neutrals.
In addition to white, vanilla, black,gold and silver the following color chart lists the other neutral shades.
(sorry the color names are blurry. I copied them from the Splitcoast website as large as they'd allow.)
Take a look at all of the color choices you have if you are only using neutrals. What colors would you use?
What stamp set would you use? I found a few House Mouse wooden block stamps for $1 each so I bought them. I removed them from the wood and use them with an acrylic block or in my stamp positioner.
They are the type of stamp that I can use for cards for the hospital. Most can be used for men or women. That makes it easier for those who put cards on dinner trays at the hospital.
Well, that's it for today with the two color challenges. You know sometimes having a challenge makes it easier to make a card. Usually the challenge has you searching for something whether it's designer paper or stamps. I love being able to have help with using the stamps and supplies I have.
Thanks for stopping by.
Blessings,
Sue
