Color Coordinates: Celebrate
Welcome everyone! Are you ready for a bright set of colors? I don’t know about you, but I’m all about Spring and sunshine right now. I have purple tulips blooming in the garden and they are my inspiration for this Color Coordinates Recipe.
I’ve channeled my inner Laura Bassen to create a yummy, bold and beautiful stripe background as a setting for some spotlighted flowers. I used the Tim Holtz Brushstrokes stamp set with Hot Mama, Hydrangea, Wisteria, Scuba and Green Apple inks from Simon Says Stamp.
To add a little spunk and dimension to my card, I used the Tim Holtz Tag Press to spotlight the flowers blossoms. These are easy to use and become an embellishment on their own.
I’ve filmed the process in making this card, you can view it below or on our YouTube channel HERE.

My favorite colors are purple and green so I totally love this color palette. And your card is darling! Love the paint strokes and also the way you used the pressed tags for the flowers & leaf. Cute!
Oh so Pretty! My tulips are on their way out with all the rain we have been getting, but other flowers are certainly growing with all the rain!
