Merry Christmas - Color Dare #622 Triple Play

Here is my Design Team card for Color Dare #622 "Triple Play" wherein you must use all three colors, or closest match, and have combined it with Saturday Sketches #761.  

Other than the piecing this was a fairly easy card to create. A Periwinkle patterned paper was selected for the background and bordered using Journey cardstock. Went through my die stash to find something that would represent the three circles in the sketch... used a floral die with two poinsettias cutting several in different cardstock colors and one from a patterned paper. Played around with the positioning and cuts until satisfied with arrangement and colors. 

Before the first die cut was adhered to the background paper I cut a narrow piece of Journey cardstock and adhered to the back of the bar in the floral. This pice was then adhered to the background for piecing in the poinsettia leaves. The white layer of the die cut was then added over the first layer.  The third poinsettia was added from the same die cuts, positioned and adhered to the left.   

Sentiment was stamped on white cardstock, bordered with Journey cardstock and adhered at bottom direct to background with a little floral and leave cut off from the same die.  




I had lots of left-over die cuts and placed the one cut from the patterned paper on the inside corner of the card base.  

Please hop on over and join us at Color Dare's Color Board #622 and check out the Design Teams inspiration, and then let us see what you create... hope to see you there.
