Two lovely cards, Petra ... one soft and subtle, the other bold and vibrant ... gorgeous! Your second would fit Michele's Muse this week ... perfect colour fit! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteTwo more stunners Petra!! I don't know how you keep coming up with all these new ideas!! So imaginative! Gorgeous! Have a lovely Sunday! Hazel xx
ReplyDeleteI think this is the first color challenge I have seen you join in with [probably not, but I seem to only catch the sketches] Anyway -- awesome job - I do love the Verve Sketch card though. You really rock those out!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards Petra. Love the soft roses on the first one... did the guide help to layer the images? The crackle image looks perfect in the background! The chevron paper is so pretty with the yellow flower on the second card. Also like the little flower peeking out from underneath the paper. The die-cut circles look great.
ReplyDeleteYour rose image is beyond stunning! You have done an incredible job coloring it. The colors look almost 'velvet-ie'. Love the bit of crackle paper!
ReplyDeleteThe hues of the orange and green in your second card are so soft and pretty - a somewhat 'muted' effect - gorgeous! Great contrast with the variation in size of the top and bottom chevrons.
Two more knockouts dear friend!
gorgeous cards Petra! TFS!
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty cards Petra! The blossoms are beautiful! Love all the layered die cuts!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Your rose is gorgeous and I love the bows! I keep trying to make little circles with my twine but can't quite get it to look cool and artsy like you do. Maybe I should try bows! Love the double rings on the second!
