more color mondays – petal pink, fresh freesia and pool party

I don’t know about you but for me my mind starts to daydream about Spring about this time in January! So today’s More Color Monday is all about blue skies and the Happy Hellos of Springtime with Petal Pink, Fresh Freesia and Pool Party with a healthy splash of Blueberry Bushel for contrast!

Measurements:
BASE: Blueberry Bushel 4 1/4″ x 11″
scored at 5 1/2″
Sunny Days DSP 2″ x 4 1/4″
Basic White scrap for sentiment die and mail
box
Pool Party scrap for grass die
Petal Pink scrap for envelope die
Fresh Freesia scrap for heart die

Gather the pieces for this fast and easy color challenge card.
Die cut and emboss the Hello from the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid Embossing Folder in Basic White.
Die cut the grass in Pool Party.
Die cut the heart in Fresh Freesia, and the envelope stamp in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on Petal Pink CS and die cut with smaller envelope die.

Using Stampin’ Blends color the mail box in light Petal Pink, the mailbox base in Blueberry Bushel light blend. Using a water painter color the grass in Pool Party ink.

Adhere the 2″ strip of Sale-a-bration Sunny Days DSP to the top edge of the card base.

Pop up the Hello die from the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid embossing folder with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals and adhere to the middle right hand side of the card base.

Adhere the grass die in Pool Party CS to the bottom edge of the card front.

Using the edge of your Paper Snips and slice at the left inside outline of the mailbox opening creating a slit for the envelope to tuck into before adhering it to the card (do not put adhesive to the left of the slit mark so you have wiggle room to insert the envelope die into the slit.)
Adhere the colored mail box die cut to the left hand side of the card tucking the bottom just under the grass die so that the stamped grass sticks out in a tuft.

I stamped the I miss you sentiment in the upper right hand corner of the DSP.

And I finished the card off with the very “Springtime” Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots in Fresh freesia and Pool Party!
