Monday Montage Instahop - Darling Duckling In Color

Welcome to another Monday Montage Instahop. I often rely on Darling Duckling, a versatile new In Color, to elevate my designs. This calming color strikes a balance between cool and warm tones. Darling Duckling is a distinctive yellow shade accented with green undertones.

Adhere the Basic White cardstock layer to the front of the card base. Glue the Darling Duckling 2025-2027 6" x 6" In Color Designer Series Paper to the Basic White cardstock layer leaving approximately 1/2" from the far left side. 

Die cut the Stylish Shapes Circle using Darling Duckling cardstock. Attach the circle die cut to the center of the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals. 

Using the Charming Day Bundle, stamp the large rose in Tuxedo Black Memento Black ink on Basic White cardstock. Die cut the image using the coordinating die set. Color the rose petals using Darling Duckling Stampin' Blends Combo Pack. Note: use the dark to add texture and depth to the outer petals. Color the leaves using Old Olive Stampin' Blends Combo Pack. I used a dark Old Olive Stampin' Blend to highlight the center of the leaves. Attach the rose die cut image to the center of the circle die cut using Stampin' Dimensionals. Die cut (3) leaves in Basic White using the Charming Day Dies. Tuck underneath the stamped die cut using Mini Glue Dots. 

Stamp the "Thanks for being you" sentiment in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on the Basic White cardstock layer. Add (3) Darling Duckling 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls. I used one of each of the three sizes. Comment below what you like most about this card.
