Think About Color Thursday - Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Riding Hood Red, Whisper White

Did you notice the white stuff in the background of this card?  SNOW!  We are in the middle of a winter storm & everything outside is white!

So, last night I was sleeping like a baby - I must have been sleeping well because I was dreaming.  The funniest thing happened in my dream!  My dream morphed into me making a greeting card.  An even funnier thing that happened was that when I woke up at 3am, I remembered my dream in detail, especially the card that I had created.  It was a card that I do not recall ever thinking of or making (awake, that is).  Talk about strange!  So, I guess I can be creative even in my sleep. lol 

I really like the color combination:

Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Riding Hood Red, Whisper White

HERE is my dreamy creation!

Do you want to make this card too?  Here's how:

Supplies you will need:

cs:  Whisper White, Chocolate Chip, Riding Hood Red, Old Olive

dsp:  Bella Rose (if you do not have the Bella Rose dsp or RHR cs or inkpad, just use either Ruby Red or Real Red & some dsp in the same color)

ink:  RHR

stamp set:  Vintage Labels (Sale-a-Bration FREE stamp set!)

punches:  3 Flower, 1/2" circle, scallop square, Crop-o-Dile, Top Note die

Here what you do:

1.  Die cut white cs with the Top Note die.

2.  Punch the Top Note white cs with the 3 Flower punch.

3.  Punch 3 dsp circles with the 1/2" circle punch & adhere behind the punched flowers on the white Top Note.

4.  Cut 3 stems, free hand, from Old Olive CS & adhere under flowers.

5.  Use trimming scissors/paper snips on a scrap of Old Olive cs to create little blades of grass.  Adhere grass over stems on Top Note cs.

6.  Fluff grass with fingertip.

7.  Use Crop-o-Dile to punch 3 small holes into flower centers.

8.  Punch wide oval from Chocolate Chip cs, scallop square from RHR cs, and half of a scallop oval from Old Olive cs.
