Challenge time again at The House

The new Designer’s Choice Challenge over at 

The House that Stamps Built is a colour challenge 

Use two or more shades of Blue.

I even named my card for this challenge - Blue Blue my card is Blue.

Here is what I came up with.

The card base is white and topped with dark blue cs and I distressed the edges. I followed with a lighter  blue and embossed it with CB Textile folder. I also sanded the surface to bring out the white then distressed and tore a few edges. 

I then layered the same dark blue paper, distressed the edges and curled one corner. The white cs on top has been inked in a very light blue with SU Vintage Vogue stamp set.

I stamped the small flowers in a dark blue on the white cs and cut out a further 2 the same and popped them on top.

Finished off with some sprigs from my MS punch and added a larger lighter blue flower which has dots of liquid pearls and a touch of glitter around the centre.

Added a small piece of light blue ribbon and a tiny sentiment from Gina K's stamp set Stippled Nature.

This is a closer view of the light blue flower which show the glitter a little more clearly.
