A Colorful Hi

The Color My Heart challenge for this week (Color Dare #77) includes five colors:  Cranberry, Sunset, Honey, Juniper, and Smokey Plum.  It definitely took some thought to include all five colors, and I am pleased with the result. 

A sneak peek at one of the new Mini stamps which will be available from CTMH on February 1 is this cute Hi which is stamped on Sunset cardstock and the letters cut out.  Instead of using the flower "dot for the i" which is included with the stamp, a cute embellishment was used.  You can see the original image on the envelope.  

To create the colorful accent piece, an overlay from the Artbooking cartridge was cut and then cardstock in the five colors was added to the back.  Some Glitter Paper was used to add a bit of sparkle to the card. 



This card was selected as the Winner for Color Dare #77

All papers and stamps are from Close To My Heart (CTMH).

  1. Super cute, Sheila. I love how you created the stripes behind the overlay and how you used the Washi Tape on the flap (I LOVE Washi tape!) Thanks for taking his week's Color Dare.
