CQC168, RS42, Snowflakes...

This card was made for two challenges:  the Color Queen Challenge 168 and the Retro Sketch 42.  The colors in the color challenge were cherry cobbler, ruby red, bashful blue,   crumb cake and white.  The large crumb cake snowflake is a DRSDesign image.  I embossed on the bashful blue with a snowflake folder.  There are little snowflakes in crumb cake, and the border was done in the two reds.   I added a ruby red brad to tie in more of the red.  Thanks for looking!  :>)  P.S.  There was glitter added that is difficult to see.

CC406, Vanilla Elements...


Today Karen Barber gave us our colorless color challenge.  We were to use white or vanilla.  I used different shades of vanilla.  I embossed on two of the panels with the fan folder from SU.  I used an antique brad from SU as well, and the Elements of Style stamp set.  I felt it was a little bit more challenging working without real colors.  It was also fun though.

CTD222, WT405, Pansies...


This card is for two challenges.  The first one is the 222nd color throw down challenge.  The colors we were to use are bashful blue, pacific point, summer sun, black and white.  The other challenge was fussy cutting - The ways to use it.  I always enjoy doing the color challenges so much.

cQc167, Merry Christmas Holly...


I love these colors together and the designers for this challenge have some great samples.  I used SU markers to color my holly.  I cut one piece out and popped it up.  I also used SU clear faceted gems.  It was a fun card.  Thanks for looking.  I hope you have safe and healthy holidays.  :>)

CTD221, SC414, Joy at Christmas...


I combined two challenges for this card.  The first one is the 221 st Color Throw Down Challenge.  Barb gave us Christmas colors:  crumb cake, riding hood red, gum ball green, and black.  The sketch was a challenge on SCS that Korin gave us this last Wednesday.  I added a holly branch as a type of embellishment in my upper right hand corner.  It was fun doing these two challenges together.  Thanks for looking!!
