Whew...it was a busy week, but I am catching up. Last chance to get my Merry Monday's challenge posted. And, of course, I had camera issues today. The sun is shining, but my camera didn't want to cooperate.
This week's challenge was fun. I do love the colors Lesley chose. I knew exactly what stamp and papers I was going to use for this challenge...so that was half the battle done. My challenge was to find the time to put the card together. Here is this week's inspiration.
This challenge was so much fun. I love these colors together. I used Gina K's "Pure White" card stock, Stampin' Up's "Lucky Limeade" card stock and the pink card stock and designer paper came from Recollections "Christmas" paper pack (thank you, Marcia!). And some other designer paper from Bella Press "Watermelon Coordinates" paper sampler, which I have had for years. The stamps I used were DeNami Designs "Christmas Cheer", which I stamped with Memento's "Tuxedo Black" ink and colored the backs of the rectangles with Copics #G82 and RV25. I then paper pieced the trees and the stars. I used glossy accents on the stars and "Stardust" stickles on the trees. I used SU's embossing folders "Pretty Print" and "Decorative Dots" and stamped Hero Arts' "Merry Christmas" in SU's "Lucky Limeade" ink. So much fun!!!
