I created this card as an entry for the Color INK and Inspiration color challenge on Facebook.
I chose to use the Painted Lavendar and Perennial Postage collection to make this flowery Mother's Day card. I'll be totally honest, Moody Mauve is one of my least favorite colors, but when I lightened it by stamping off once, I thought it worked well..... but YOU should use it at which ever color strength pleases YOU.
Cutting instructions:
- Card base- Basic White: 4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2". This is a top fold card.
- Front matte layer - Garden Green: 3 3/8" x 4 5/8"
