Hello again! Today's card is one I have entered into the TGIF Challenge Blog - #TGIFC328 - Colour Challenge . This weeks challenge is was to use Basic Black, Coastal Cabana and White.

I love colour challenges due to the flexibility and it often gives me the opportunity to play with colours I would not normally use. I used the Summer Shadows Dies which is an exclusive die set coordinating with the Shaded Summer stamp set from the Annual Catalogue. I also used a sentiment from the Nature's Harvest stamp set, the Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder as well as some ink blending.

Don't forget that the Summer Shadows Dies are part of the Sale-a-bration catalogue running till the end of September. You can get this set for free for purchases over $180 in the Stampin' Up!® Australian store.

Instructions:

- Use a piece of Basic Black A4 cut in half lengthwise and folded. Mat with a piece of Coastal Cabana and then with a piece of Basic White card which has been embossed with the Timeworn Type Embossing Folder

- Die cut multiple flowers and leaves from the Summer Shadows Dies using Basic White card. Using Blending Brushes, apply Coastal Cabana ink to some of the die cuts in an ombré fashion where some pieces are darker and others lighter. Attach the flowers to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals and the leaves with Liquid Glue.

- Using the Nature's Harvest stamp set, stamp the sentiment with Versamark ink onto a small piece of Basic Black card. Heat emboss with White Embossing Powder. Attach this piece to a piece of Coastal Cabana card with Liquid Glue. Attach the sentiment to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals.

- Add some Opal Rounds and Matte Black Dots to the front of the card.
