Color Challenge at Repeat Impressions

The first Wednesday of each month at Repeat Impression’s blog, The House that Stamps Built, is going to be a color challenge. We give you the color inspiration, and you can make a card using those colors to possibly win a great prize of Repeat Impressions rubber! Here is the color palette chosen this month:
Kraft is one of my favorite colors to make cards with, and red cards make me happy, so this card was easy to design. I started with a kraft card base and layered a piece of red on top with a beautiful border cut with two curved border dies from Spellbinders. I heat embossed a large dragonfly from Repeat Impressions with a sparkly black embossing powder and cut it out. I stamped a smaller dragonfly and a perfect sentiment and the happy card was done.

I am entering this card in the Anything Goes challenge at Crafting from the Heart and the Design Team Showcase.

    So pretty Karen! Really love that border. The use of the red against the kraft really makes it pop.
