As promised on Wednesday, here are the two cards that didn’t make the cut for the Color Hues Challenge: Lilac and Aqua. The first card was put aside once I realized the “lilac” ink I had used was actually more pink than lilac. I turned this one into a mini-slimline, adding the Pinkfresh Studio Charming Floral Border to a stitched rectangle from Gina K’s Master Layout #7, using some dimensional tape. The sentiment is from The Stamp Market Foiled Card Phrases. It’s always good to have another birthday card in your stash.
The second card has to be eliminated from the challenge when I used a stencil brush that still had significant green on it. No way could it be called aqua.
It’s hard to see, but I cut the top of the card off and layered the Charming Floral Border over it. The sentiment from Spellbinder’s Curved Everyday Sentiments is on the bottom of the inside of the card. This has already gone in the mail for my brother-in-law and sister-in-law’s anniversary.
The first card is off to Seize the Birthday Challenge: Layer it, and both cards are off to The Flower Challenge: Spring Colors and the Pinkfresh Studio April Challenge: Floral Frenzy.

What lovely cards. So very soft and spring like. Thank you for sharing these over at The Flower Challenge. -Laurie DT
Very! pretty cards, soft & speaking in tones of spring or any time (col).
Karen, both cards are so pretty. So nice to have Spring cards in the gallery. Thanks for joining us at Seize the Birthday.
Karen, These are just as pretty as the one that made the gallery at CH. I am glad you shared them with us as they certainly are too pretty to waste. Thanks for linking up at Seize the Birthday.
Such pretty spring cards both beautifully coloured and I love how you framed them without too much fuss. Thank you so much Karen for sharing these beauties with us at The Flower challenge.

Both cards turned out beautifully, Karen. Thanks for sharing them with us at The Flower Challenge.
Both cards are so lovely!
They may not have made the cut for the challenge, but oh boy are they gorgeous!
