Today I have a fun new ‘Suite Seasons’ and ‘Flourishing Phrases’ card to share with you for the current Pals Paper Arts Challenge #323– a mix of Tangerine Tango, Emerald Envy, and Tip Top Taupe. For this week’s color challenge Shawn de Oliveira is our host and the has a great contrasting color combination to try!
For this color combination I wanted to make a sympathy card that could be feminine or masculine. I opted to use the focal sentiment ‘Sending You Thoughts of Comfort‘ from the Flourishing Phrases stamp set. I also wanted to add a textured background, so I decided that the new Petal Burst Textured Impressions Embossing Folder would bring about a detailed background that wouldn’t be overwhelming. I inked the Textured Impressions Embossing Folder before running it through my Big Shot to give it this Tangerine Tango pop.
After stepping back and looking at the background, sentiment, and layering it still needed just a bit of something else. Looking at the two stamp sets I had open I decided to add the Emerald Envy leaves from the Flourishing Phrases stamp set. I think the variety of texture and color works well for this combination.
This lovely color trio could make so many possibilities – give it a shot yourself! Join in our challenge today!

Such a beautiful way to use these vibrant colors. I love the leaves coming out at the side!
Um, I see I became a Hoty trying to type around the cat stretched across my keyboard tray.
I love how you inked the folder, Jackie! And the pretty leaves poking out the side just pop!
