Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Color Challenge Week 8 Sweet Sorbet

It's time to celebrate Friday with the Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Color Challenge. It's Week 8, which means our Challenge Color this week is Sweet Sorbet, one of the 2022-2024 In Colors. I love this beautiful, vibrant red and I am excited to share with you the card I created with this fun color.

For today's card design, I decided to bring out an old favorite from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog. The Hello Ladybug stamp set and coordinating Ladybug Builder Punch are perfect for showcasing this bright red and I had so much fun creating this clean and simple card design. I also used the Stylish Shapes Dies, one of my go-to favorites to create this layout and used one of the designs from the 2022-2024 In Colors 6"x6" Designer Series Paper to create a fun, cheerful background. There is something so amazing about the combination of black, white and red that I love and it works so well for this card design.

This clean and simple card is easy to create a bright and cheerful card design. When I first thought about creating a card design with Sweet Sorbet, I thought it would be perfect to use with the Hello Ladybug stamp set. The black, white and Sweet Sorbet color combination was the perfect fit and I couldn't wait to get started. I wanted to find a way to really make the Sweet Sorbet pop, so I decided to use Basic Black cardstock for the card base and the accent layers. I die cut a Basic Black circle to frame the Basic White focal circle to help it stand out against the Sweet Sorbet polka dot designer series paper. I punched out the body with the Ladybug Builder Punch and added it to the center of the Basic White circle. For the wings, I stamped the wing image with Sweet Sorbet onto Basic White cardstock and then stamped the dots image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the wings. I then punched it out with the Ladybug Builder Punch and added it to the back of the ladybug body. For the sentiment, I stamped the image with Sweet Sorbet Classic ink onto the Basic White label and then layered it onto the Basic Black matte label. I wapped a piece of the Sweet Sorbet Baker's Twine around the card front twice and tied a knot on the left side. I attached the sentiment label over the top of the twine with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals and added the focal image above it with Stampin' Dimensionals. For a touch of bling, I added two of the Sweet Sorbet Pearls to the sentiment label to finish off the design. Isn't it just the cutest card? What do you think about Sweet Sorbet? Is it a yay or a nay color for you? I would love to know what you think.
