A Quick Challenge Post...

Hi! I wanted to work with the colors from Kristina Werner's color inspiration this week since they looked so great together! Here is the inspiration:



I loved the colors but I had the hardest time coming up with an idea for a card with them! I ended up doing a Christmas card... Here it is:



Goodies:
All products by Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted.

Stamps: Snow Swirled set, Heard From the Heart set
Ink: Bashful Blue, So Saffron, Rose Red, and Basic Black Classic Stampin' Inks; Versamark
Paper: Bashful Blue, Rose Red, Whisper White, and Wild Wasabi card stock; So Saffron DSP (last years...)
Other: White embossing powder, blue ribbon by Lasting Impressions, green ribbon by Creative Imaginations

I heat embossed the tree on the Wasabi paper first and matted. Then I created a background paper with the snowflake stamps and different colored inks. I chose the So Saffron DSP last, added my sentiment and ribbons and voila! Pretty easy holiday card, right!

Anyways, Kristina always puts up the best color challenges! They are by far my favorite!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Introducing... Snow Swirled!!

I am so excited to present the newest Collector's Club!



For the month of October, we are featuring the Snow Swirled Set! It is a beautiful set and I've had a lot of fun creating these cards... I've been ready to start Christmas cards for awhile now- I always seem to be doing mine at the last minute so this year I thought I'd start a little early!

Here are closeups of each of the cards we will be making:







Collector's Club: Snow Swirled Edition

Cost: $35.00


Get a head start on your Christmas cards! We will make 10 cards (2 each of 5 designs) with one stamp set. The best part? Everyone gets to take the set home with them! For this edition, I chose the Snow Swirled set. Out of all the Christmas sets I've seen this year, this one is my favorite! I chose Pink Pirouette, Baja Breeze, Always Artichoke, Kraft, and Confetti White for my color scheme. I used a variety of different techniques for these cards... Lots of heat embossing and glitter! I always think that's fun so I hope the people who attend do too!


It should be a fun one! If you are interested, check out my Stampin' Up website or email me!
