This card combines three challenges: a sketch, a color combo, and the number 5. Colors used are Sweet Leaf and Crystal Blue from Color My Heart Color Dare #92, and the sketch is CAS(E) this Sketch #74 (CTS74). Flourish images are found in the Swirls Around stamp set and the sentiment is from Joyful Birthday. To add a bit of texture to the background, a printed paper from the Balloon Ride kit is used. With five colored sparkles, it is a Take 5! for the Heart 2 Heart Challenges blog. Rounding two of the corners is an easy way to create a more "soft" look.
UPDATE: This card was chosen as the Emerald Winner for Color My Heart Color Dare #92!

ReplyDeleteThanks Michelle! The sentiment is embossed using Crystal Blue pigment ink so it will show up well against the flourish.
