PAPER TREY INK MARCH BLOG HOP





Hi everyone!!

I'm very glad to be able to play this month on the Paper Trey Blog Hop.  Usually it takes place during weekdays when I am working.  Today challenge is all about yellow and shades of aqua.  I looove the inspirational pic, it made me want to eat lemon candies.... or at least have a cup of lemon tea ;)


Here is the inspirational pic:


For the card I tried also this week Make it Monday Technique - Graduated Backgrounds.  I love this technique and found it excellent to combine today's color pallet. 

To achieve the color on the leaves, I used last week Make It Monday Technique and stamped the leaves in green and then using the Bitty Background Blocks I color kissed the leaves in blue.   The kissed image is very subtle but is there, and I love how it turned out.  I also used the same technique to make the flower.   


Here is a full picture of the card:


Thanks for your visit and for leaving some love!!
Hugs,

Nice! Esos retos son chévere q obligan a combinar colores q de otra forma quizás no combinaríamos, verdad? Te quedó hermosa. Me encantaron las hojas estampadas. Gracias por compartir.
