When I saw the SUOC #392 Sketch Challenge, I knew it would be perfect for my attempt at using the Simply Beautiful dies to make a tropical card. Here's what I made, using the Beach Boardwalk suite as my color inspiration:
Here's the sketch:
I started with a 4" x 5 1/4" White Willow panel and began blending Lemon Lolly ink near the bottom.
Above and blending into the Lemon Lolly area, I added Pool Party and then blended the top with Petunia Pop.
I used Granny Apple Green and Pool Party Two-Tone cardstock, plus Petunia Pop and Lemon Lolly cardstock. The sentiment, stamped with Secret Sea, is from the LAST CHANCE Beautiful Butterflies stamp set.
I would love to know what you think of my take on this sketch and/or the color comb! Does it give you tropical vibes? Thanks for stopping by!
