Color Hues #32

Hannelie has chose Red and Purple for the first Color Hues Challenge in 2022.

I have quite a few stamps and dies that arrived thanks to sales during the last months of 2021, and I am determined to make good use of them. The Simon Says “Geometric Builder: Hearts” came to mind when I saw this color combination. 

I chose three different designs and die cut each from two shades of red (Gina K’s Red Hot, Concord & 9th’s Poppy) and two shades of purple (Papertrey Ink’s Amethyst Allure, Concord & 9th’s Eggplant), and then assembled the  hearts on a solid heart shape.

I knew I wanted a mini slimline design and die cut the scalloped die from Trinity Stamps'”Mini Envelope Builder.” Then I cut three hearts from that panel so I could inlaid the red and purple hearts.

The sentiment is from The Greetery’s “Sentiment Suite: Love” which I die cut with one of the “Sentiment Suite Basic Dies.” I chose the sentiment thinking this could be an anniversary card, a valentine, or just a thinking of you card.  I added dimensional adhesive to the scalloped panel and adhered it to a white card base, and added a few transparent gems.

I hope you’ll hop over to the Color Hues Challenge and join in the fun, checking out the cards made by my awesome Design Team members, and our Guest Designer, Tenia.
