Rainbow Card Challenge - Beautiful Brown...

Hi! The new challenge is up for the Rainbow Card Challenge. Here is the inspiration pic.

I started with a completely different card. But for some reason, it just wasn't coming together. I finally kept it aside and started browsing through Pinterest for some inspiration. While browsing I found a beautiful card by Connie Stewart, which greatly inspired me. You can find the original card here. I pulled out my supplies and the new card came together within one hour! I love how beautiful this card turned out.

I started with a piece of ivory card stock and stamped the leaf image from the A Tree For All Seasons stamp set by Winnie and Walter randomly. I used the four ink cubes from the Coffee Break mini ink cubes set by Altenew. After letting the panel dry a bit, I stamped with Versamark ink and heat embossed with Ranger's Enchanted Gold embossing powder. 

Here is a closer look at the panel.

I trimmed the panel and adhered it to a dark brown card base. The sentiment is from the Birthday Greetings stamp set by Altenew. I stamped and heat embossed it with Ranger's Metallic Gold embossing powder and popped it on the panel with some foam tape. To finish, I added a few clear gems from my stash.

Here is another look at the completed card.

I hope you liked my card and are inspired to create something beautiful You can visit the Rainbow Card Challenge blog for more inspiration from the design team and to link your entries. 

Love,
