The Challenge is back with a new challenge! Next up in our challenge rotation is a color combination. It's a bright, bold one featuring hot pink, green, teal, and yellow. I paired the colors with the current layout at Match the Sketch for this floral thank you design.
I used Avery Elle's Fabulous Florals stamps and dies to create a colorful cluster of blooms for my focal image. The flowers and leafy branch were stamped in a mix of bold pigment inks and cut with the matching dies. I used a pink patterned paper panel for a background. I paired it with a piece of a cheery yellow polka dotted stitched rectangle that's been sitting on my desk for ages and a section of a teal circle. Once the background pieces were in place, I added on the flowers, using foam tape to add dimension to pieces of the grouping. The "thank you" sentiment was stamped in black ink on a green cardstock strip. I tucked the stamped strip beneath the flowers. The pink panel was adhered to a teal mat, then set on a coordinating pink card base.
