Blush Blossom & Sage Shadow





I recently joined a swap in which I had to use a specific SU! color. (I chose Blush Blossom and Sage Shadow as you can see above.) Blush Blossom is a very faint pink.. it isn't as powerful as Pretty in Pink, which is a little too girly for me. I thought the "You're Neat" stamp set would work wonderfully with this subtle color because of its simple line images. I was dying to try out some stamps from the SU! Preview Brochure a couple weeks ago, so I decided to use Pick a Petal for the Sage Shadow cards. I wanted to incorporate colors from the Seaside Ribbon Originals. (I didn't realize they were going to be discontinued at the time.) All in all, I think both turned out ok. It was a bit time consuming making the tiny pinwheels for the Blush Blossom cards and assembling the 6-petal flowers for the Sage Shadow cards.
