Tone On Tone

The Gina K. Designs May release was held yesterday and Gina put out the challenge for us to make a tone on tone card design. Well, I love a challenge so I pulled out the Wreath Builder stamp set and template by Gina K. Designs and proceeded to make this card.


Gina has a fabulous array of green inks and card stocks so I decided to make a card with those tones in mind. The only other colors are the white and black.

I started to build the wreath on a 3 3/4 piece of Key Lime card stock. I stamped the images from the Wreath Builder stamp set with Jellybean Green and Lucky Clover inks. The sentiment was stamped in Gina K. Designs Amalgam Jet Black ink. Next I took a white piece of card stock size 5 1/4 x 3 3/4 inches and placed some green and white polka dot Washi Tape along the bottom and in the middle of that I added some black and white twine. The Key Lime panel was then also layered onto the white above the Washi tape layer. This panel was then placed onto a card base of Lucky Clover card stock. The last thing I added to the card was a white panel inside so that I can add a message.
.
Well here we are to the weekend already. I hope you have a great one. And, all you mothers or motherly type have a great Mother's Day. Thanks for stopping by.

God bless,
Verna

Love the fresh shades of green you selected, and what a fab job you did with the wreath builder (I just got that & haven't tried it yet). Love the airy design of this wreath, and the combination of the paper designs you've used. The black & white bakers twine really popped the bright greens too. So pretty Verna! TFS & Hugs
