Hello AI Fans!
We have a fun new color challenge for you for the next two weeks!
We thought this color combination would be perfect for all your Spring cards.
We're thinking navy and pale blue, sunny yellow, a nice soft neutral and garden greens!
Perfect for flowers and grass and a sunny sky. Also great for a basket full off Easter eggs or anything else that you're envisioning. We have a couple of inspiration photos to help you get started.
Before we see what Sharon, our Featured Artist created let's see who won the Shake it Up! Challenge.

I'm excited to kick off the new challenge for Art Impressions this week and it's a color challenge!! We are asking you to use the colors of navy, green, and yellow. This was a super fun challenge and I definitely took inspiration from the gorgeous photos supplied to us by AI!! Easter is right around the corner, so I made a fun card utilizing the Lawn Fawn Ta Da Diorama die set to feature several Art Impressions sets. This is so awesome because it folds completely flat for mailing, but when unfolded, it is a wonderfully dimensional diorama! Here is the finished card folded flat.
And here it is when you pull out the flaps.
I cut all the pieces out to assemble the card, stamped all my images and colored them to match the papers.
These adorable images are from 5346 Birdhouse Cubbies Set, 5504 Happy Spring Set, and 5274 Easter Bunnies Set. There are links to each of them below.
This is the card put together before adding all the adorable images.
I used the Nested Heart Die Set and stamped a fun sentiment on it from the new 5867 Mini Easter Sentiment Set. I then cut it in half and glued them to the front of the card. I had so much fun building the scene with all the cute bunnies and chick! And of course I had to add a cute little bird in the sky!
And once again, the final product. I chose to mount the diorama onto a standard A2 card using a navy and green mat to pull out the challenge colors. The navy looks black in the pictures, but it's a true navy color.
Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit today! I can't wait to see what you create for the new color challenge!
