CCMC477 Hello Friend

It's Thursday, and that means it's Challenge time again over at www.createwithconnieandmary.com.
This week is a colour challenge, and these are the colours we had to work with:

When I first put these 3 colours together, I was a bit daunted by how strong they all are. When that happens, my tip is to balance it out with lots of white!

• I've used the Hello Friend stamp set. This set coordinates with the Hello Friend Heat Embossing Project Kit on page 17 of the Annual Catalogue. I've taken one of the cards from the kit as my inspiration for this card.
• Yes, I have fussy-cut the wreath....and all the little flowers. Yes, I like fussy-cutting. No, I am not insane!
• the 1/8" Sheer Ribbon (in Calypso Coral) adds the perfect touch of elegance, without being too heavy. A touch of gold thread amps up the elegance even more!
• I used an Aquapainter and ink to create a watercolour wash over the white embossed lattice image. I've also added some spatters of ink by tapping my Aquapainter with a bone folder.

I hope you like my card. Check out what the other talented stampers have come up with HERE. Don't forget you can play along over on the facebook page!
