Welcome to The Card Concept.
This week we have some colours for you to try! You must use the colours and create your card in one of the styles of the designers. This month our Guest Designer is Lesley Croghan. She is joining the Classy & Elegant Designers. Lesley is the creator of The Card Concept, has a keen eye for design and she is a fabulous designer herself. Welcome, Lesley!
The styles are explained HERE.
Clean & Simple
Clean & Graphic
Geri Greening
My card was inspired by the colors in the photo & the graphic pattern created by the sticks of the yummy cake pops!
Clean & Layering
Shabby Chic
I took the colours Early Espresso & Gumball Green from the inspiration picture to create my shabby
flowery creation.
Debbie Marcinkiewicz
I took inspiration from the shapes of the cake pops ... they looked like pretty blooms lined up in a row, so I recreated one using a paper flower, glitter chipboard leaves and a fun paper straw for the stem!

Freestyle Collage
This colour combination inspired a birthday theme for me. The large green '50' was my starting point and I 'Freestyled' from there.
Classy & Elegant
Lesley Croghan (Guest Designer)
I was inspired by the gorgeous green contrasted with the white and dark brown. The swirls on the candies inspired me to use a flourished template.
Our Rules
- Use the Challenge to create a card.
- Choose one of the design team "styles" to create your card. Click HERE for the different styles summary.
- Explain in your post which style you used.
- Link up your blog post here, not your whole blog.
- Comment on the card ahead of you and behind you in the linky. Everyone loves comments!
This challenge will end on Monday, March 17 at Noon (PST).
Why do I always think of food with these challenges? Maybe coz I'm always on a worthless diet! I love the thought of a cup of espresso in a bright white cup and a piece of key lime pie! I kill myself doing these visuals, lol!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, enough about me, your sympathy card is a study in elegance and thoughtfulness, Lesley! Brilliant work as always and great to have you as GD!! The rest of the team has outdone themselves as well; so much delectable inspiration!! Delectable, there I go again ...! Hugs, Darnell
What a fun color palette! I truly want to sample every single one of those cake pops!
