One of our new Design Team members, Jules, chose this round's colors. It's not one I would have thought of, but it makes a lovely floral.
Initially, I wanted to create a card with a more geometric or patterned feel, but you can see I ended up with a floral from Simon Says Best Friend Ever stamp set. I pulled out some coral and sage cardstock and matched the Copic markers to that before coloring, using two markers on the leaves and two on the petals.
For the background, I chose Pinkfresh Studio's Deco Tiles coverplate which I love--especially when it's tone on tone. And it helped satisfy my desire for some geometric design in the card. In the photo below you can see the pretty gold foiling from the Spellbinder's hot foil plate Everyday Sentiments.
Making the card wasn't a struggle, but photographing was a whole other story. Trying to get the light right for the foiled sentiment did change the light on the rest of the card as well. I finally had to just settle for what you see.
I hope you'll join our two Guest Designers and the Design Team at Color Hues during the next two weeks.
