Color Hues Guest Designer, Green and Gold

 Good Morning! 

I'm pleased to announce that I am Guest Designing

for the current Challenge over at the Color Hues.  

Colors for this Challenge are Green and Gold.

I'll also be entering this card at the

Simon Says Wednesday Challenge,

Here is what I created:

I used many 'foliage' stamps to create my background 

in many shades of green ink.

Gina K Designs; Love At All Times and Always Delightful stamp sets.

Altenew Fine Frames Cover Plate.

Pinkfresh Studio Kelly Alpha Lowercase dies.

Lawn Fawn My Lucky Charm stamp and die sets.

I also hand cut the center rectangle and popped it up on foam,

to create more interest, then covered it with a piece of Vellum.

Inks in;

Tuxedo Black, Always Artichoke, Cracked Pistachio, Garden Green, Galaxy Gold,

Mowed Lawn, Pear Pizzazz, Peeled Paint, Old Olive and Wild Wasabi

Copic markers for shading on the die cut letters.

Clear and Gold Embossing Powders.

Gold Foil Paper.

Mini Gold Sequins.

Gold Stickles.

Inside.

This sparkles and shines and has a bit of

depth and dimension.

Hope it brings some luck to the recipient!

Color Hues Challenge and play along!

Double D, Weddings

Good Morning!

A brand new Challenge is up and running over at the Double D Challenge Blog. 

Check out this Inspirational Tile!  Who doesn't love weddings???

 



Here's what I came up with.

 

I found this beautiful gold Designer Paper in my stash and I knew it had to be the background for my card.  Then I took this pretty pink tulle, which I also had in my stash, like who doesn't, right?  And draped it over the Gold, cinching in the middle to add a bit more drama.  I used a couple of glue dots to hold it in place, knowing I would be topping it with something.  Enter this pretty die cut from the Stampin' Up! die set, Love Notes.  In keeping with the gold theme I ran a piece of toner paper through my Mini Minc Machine coating the entire thing with pretty Gold Foil.  I then was able to die cut this heart and paper punch 2 smaller ones from it.  Plus I still have a nice sheet of Gold Foil to play with.  Sometimes we just die cut and then foil, but this way you have some all ready to go!  I also backed the Gold Foil heart with a piece of pink card stock. 

 

 

 

 

My sentiment is by Papertrey ink, Love & Marriage and is Gold Embossed on to a Spellbinders Grommet Tags die cut.  Sheer Pink Ribbon.

 

Please come on over to the Double D Blog and join in all of the FUN!  You'll be glad you did as there is always a pretty prize up for grabs!

 

Another simple card, but seriously, all you need is love! (and craft supplies).

 

Enjoy~~
