GC84: Color Challenge - Snow, Pine & Mahogany
Snow, pine and mahogany are three lovely colors that go well together, so I couldn't resist making a card for this challenge at Gingersnap Creations. I made the background by spraying forest color wash onto watercolor paper and then giving it a tint of gold sparkle with glimmer mist. The pear stamp (Qwik Art) was then stamped with embossing ink and embossed with white powder. I then cut out the shape with a nestability dye. The card base is Papertrey Ink's Scarlet Jewel cardstock and the ribbon is their matching ribbon. I matted a piece of Prima designer paper onto that, and then attached my focal piece.
