The Card Concept 5 - Colour Inspiration

Well I can honestly say I have never used this colour combo before, but it was fun to work out how to combine the colours. My first instinct was to use more white and brown with a touch of lime, but I had this beautiful paper, so this is what I created...



Since I wanted to make this gorgeous foiled paper from Kaisercraft the focal point of the card, I went with the clean and layering style. The sentiment and labels are from Papertrey Ink.

I stamped the label twice, fussy cut one and then layered with foam adhesive for more dimension.
I stitched borders on the square panels for added texture and interest.

    The chocolate and green together are absolutely perfect. I have got to make some cards in this style. Your card is perfect, the foil paper is yummo.
