Hello friends and happy Hump Day. I hope you've all had a great week so far. I'm back to share my card for this week's Crafty Kickoff IG Card Hop, which has been organised by my lovely friend Kelly. Each Wednesday we will shared a themed card and this week's theme is a colour challenge:
What a fun colour palette to work with. Even though the image is of a winter scene you don't have to make a winter card or even include a bird, just be inspired by the colours. Here is my card:
A close up look for you:
I decorated the inside:
I was inspired to use the red, orange and green colours from the graphic and went very geometric and clean and simple on my card. I began by cutting a white card panel 3 3/4" x 5" and stamped the images randomly in the upper centre of my panel using the 3 colours I had chosen. I've had this stamp set for years but this is the first time I've used it and I love it, so will definitely be pulling it out again. I then simply stamped a black sentiment within the triangle pattern. I attached the card panel onto my card base with foam tape for some dimension as there was no other bulk on my card. For the inside I cut the same size card panel, stamped my sentiment in black ink and added 3 triangles, one in each of the colours, in the bottom left. This panel was added to my card blank with double sided tape. I think this was the fastest card I have ever made (once I'd faffed about thinking where to place my triangles). I love the colours together and I think it would be a great card for anyone.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
AAA Cards challenge - Anything CAS goes optional twist Valentine
Allsorts challenge - anything but square
Crafty Catz challenge - ATG option make me smile
NBUS challenge - first time using this very old stamp set
Seize the Birthday challenge - no topping this time

Fabulous and what a shame that set from Altenew is retired, I kinda need it now ;-) Gorgeous. Thank you for playing at the AAA Card Challenges, we have a new one on Sunday, so wee you then?
Very sharp, Denise! I love the clean and simple graphic design outside and inside. Great use of the colors! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
