Color Inspiration #35

Hi Again Everyone!
Just wanted to post my card for this week's Color Inspiration. This week's colors are Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa, So Saffron, Baja Breeze and Very Vanilla. These were so much better than last week's. (I really struggled with that one :)!) I started with a Chocolate Chip base and then added a layer of Vanilla which I had stamped with the "Print Pattern" background stamp in So Saffron ink. Then I layered So Saffron and Baja Breeze on the left side of the card. I cut petals from the "Pick a Petal" after stamping them in Baja Breeze and So Saffron and glued them to the Baja Breeze piece. The swirly stamp at the top and the bottom of the flower are from "Oodles of Doodles" by Paper Salon. The "Think of You" sentiment came from "Sincere Salutations". The cocoa flowers are also from Pick a Petal. I cut those out as well and added the blue and yellow brads before adhering them with dimensionals.
That's it for me again! Have a great afternoon

Very nice! A great reminder that I should use my Pick a Petal set instead of just admiring it. Thanks!
