Okay so I know I have been MIA all week but I promise my blogging should pick back up after this week :) Things have been crazy busy but in a good way and I will have lots of projects to show come weeks end!
So on to this week's Challenge at Stampin' Royalty. Sandra picked out a fab colour combo for this week and although a little untradition for Christmas colours I thought they worked perfect for this card. Be sure to check out all the Design Teams samples for some awesome inspiration.
Here are the Challenge colours:
And here is my card:
I used River Rock textured card stock for the base then layered Marina Mist and the beautiful Snowflake DSP from the Christmas Cheer Simply Scrappin' Kit. The main images are from the Tree Trimmings Set and were stamped on Whisper White using River Rock, Early Espresso, Rich Razzleberry and Marina Mist Classic Inks, then matted on Rich razzleberry Card stock. It is hard to tell from the picture but I stamped the Marina Mist ornament on a scrap piece and cut it out, then attached it with dimensionals to give the card a little pop.
I couldn't resist pulling out some of the Wide Striped Ribbon and making a big fat bow, plus I needed to incorporate some more Early Espresso into the design. For the finishing touches I punched out a Textured piece of River Rock with the Decorative Label Punch and added some bling with the Rhinstone Jewels.
Hope you can find the time to join us this week at Stampin' Royalty and play along!
Have a great day,
Very pretty.
