Simply Stampin Challenge week 41

The challenge at Simply Stampin is another colour one and although I don't have all the colours I do have some Pool Party and white so decided to give it a go. It is pure coincidence that this card seems similar in colour to yesterday's one and I don't think I'm going into a blue mood!!
Background paper is from my stash and has been sponged around the edges with Pool Party ink and overstamped with an image from Nature Walk which also includes the bird cage and bee stamps. A border of embossed white card was added along with a punched strip and greeting using SU punches.

    A gorgeous card Val. I don't know what it is about these colours, but I love them together. It gives a lovely bright feeling without it being to bright, if that makes sense.

    I know what Sue means about the colours. They always look really fresh and clean without being garish .....totally beautiful together! It's a gorgeous card altogether. Love the bee!

    Your card is beautifully serene, I think I may have tinted the flowers on your foliage pink just to tie it in with the challenge a little more. The texture is fab! I'm so glad that you wanted to join in, even though you didn't have all the colours. Thanks for joining us at the Simply Stampin' challenge.

    I like the way you stamped the foliage in green & the way the bee looks as if it's flying up out of it. The embossed texture is a lovely contrast to the grid pattern of the paper above it too.
