Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Color Challenge - Moody Mauve

It's week 4 of the Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Insta Hop Color Challenge and this week we are creating with Moody Mauve. One of the 2023-2025 In Colors, this pretty color is a cross between pink and purple and I thought it would work well with my vintage card design. 
For today's card design, I wanted to use the beautiful Detailed Dogwood stamp set, which is a Level 2 Sale-a-bration Reward you can earn free with a qualifying design. I loved the beautiful images and thought they would work well to create collage style background. I paired it with the Notes of Nature stamp set and the Perennial Postage Bundle to add some detail and texture to the design.

I love collage stamping using a variety of images and the Detailed Dogwood stamp set has a lovely variety of images to help create texture and detail into the design. For additional images, I used the Notes of Nature stamp set, which coordinates beautifully with this stamp set. To get the variety of shades from the one ink pad, I stamped the images full strength, second and even third generation to give the look of lighter and darker tones. I used the Perennial Postage Dies to add coordinating detail around the card front, focal layer and the sentiment and I gently blended Moody Mauve ink around the edges of each layer to add dimension. For the focal image, I heat embossed one of the floral images with White embossing powder onto the Moody Mauve cardstock layer. I stamped the sentiment with Moody Mauve Classic ink onto the Basic White sentiment label. To assemble the card, I attached the focal layer first with Stampin' Dimensionals to the card front and then added the sentiment layer, slightly overlapping the bottom right corner of the focal layer. To step up the design, I added some Moody Mauve Jute Trim, separating a couple of strands and tying it into a bow, before attaching it to the sentiment with a Mini Glue Dot. To finish off the design, I added several gold dragonflies to a touch of bling. I had so much fun creating this beautiful card design using Moody Mauve. I hope it inspires you to give this pretty color a try with your own projects.
