Colour Creations Blog Hop - Week 23 - Flirty Flamingo

 

Welcome to this weeks colour Creations Blog Hop. This week we are looking at the colour Flirty Flamingo. 

I always think of my friend when I see this colour or hear the name as she loves Flamingos.

For my project today I have made a Triple Easel Card. I have used the Deckled Circle Dies to create each of the sections of the card. I used Flirty Flamingo as the card base and folded it in half and had the deckled circle just slightly off the edged of the fold so that the 2 circles that I cut out were still slightly joined. I then folded the top circle in half to create the easel.

I created 3 different sizes of circles and layered each circle with the gorgeous Hello Irresistible DSP as it has the beautiful colours of Flirty Flamingo, Soft Sea foam and Lost Lagoon that I a using for my colour palette today. I cut those out with the layer smaller to the one I made the easel in Flirty Flamingo card for the base.

For the decorations on each of the sections I have stamped the flowers from the Dainty Delight and I have coloured them with the Stampin Blends. I used the  Light and Dark Flirty Flamingo, Light and Dark Soft Sea Foam, Light Lost Lagoon and Light Wild Wheat. I then die cut them out using the Dainty Delight dies and using the dies cut out some leaves in Soft Sea Foam and Dainty Delight and to make the stopper for the front easel I cut flowers out of Flirty Flamingo.

I popped the flowers up on dimensionals for the stopper of the front easel. Each easel is the stopper for the one behind it. I stamped the Sentiment in Flirty Flamingo and used the Deckled Rectangle Dies to cut it out. Layered it up and popped it up with dimensionals. Of course you have to add a bow and some bling. 

This all folds down flat and you will have to make an envelope to give it to that special someone.
