Hello Stampers! Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments July Sketch Challenge. I needed yet another wedding card, so I chose to use the lovely Charming Day set again. I used the color combo of Peach Pie, Melon Mambo, and Garden Green from As You See It #351.
I started by embossing the large rose image on watercolor paper with white embossing powder. I watercolored the image with the challenge colors. Even though this is a pretty bright color palette, when using watercolor the colors seem to soften a bit. The Melon Mambo is very light, but I assure you it really is Melon Mambo!
I die cut the colored image along with some foliage from Charming Day and Layers of Beauty dies. I used white and gold for the foliage. I also die cut and embossed the sentiments in gold and white to tie it all together. The sentiments are from Delightful Wishes.
Instead of going with a plain rectangular panel, I opted for an Everyday Arches dies cut. I think it makes the card more attractive and added interest. I brushed on some Peach Pie ink to the arch to make it stand out. It's all perched on a white and Peach background embossed with my basics and Garden and Glass Embossing folders.
The bow is tied on with Gold Mesh Ribbon.
