FCCB Challenge #239 Beyond Red and Green

Hi! everyone. It's the countdown to Christmas.  The challenge today at FCCB is to make a Christmas project using colors other than the tradtional red and green.  I've seen a lot of decorations this year in pinks and blues.  Here is my card for inspiration today.

I used the following supplies:

Cricut cartridge Elegant Edges-scallops

Cricut cartridge Kate's ABC's - JOY

Spellbinders embossing folder-background

Fiskers stamp set for sentiment

Modge Podge mold and melting stick for birds

I embossed my card and then punched three evenly spaced 1" holes.  I cut the scallops to fit exactly over the holes for a frame using silver metallic paper from DCWV.  I stamped my sentiment and then heat embossed it with silver.  I punched three 1" circles out of the same paper and placed inside my card for my letters.  Some white silver edged ribbon and two doves and I was finished.  The hardest part was matching the scallop frames to the circles.

Hope you will all join our challenge.  

Link up your projects using any colors but red and green.

Bye, Bye for Now

Another Challenge Simon Says Stamp

This is short post just wanted to share a Halloween card for the challenge this week at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog. They want your project to have embossing dry or heat. I embossed my card using the Cuttlebug and folder Skulls and Scrolls.

I made this card clean and simple (CAS). It was quick and easy. Used black and orange card stock. Embossed and inked the orange. I used MCT "Treats for my Sweet" stamp set for my sentiment stamped in Black Soot / Tim Holtz.  Black sheer ribbon and a bling button from Liz's Paper Loft tied with orange and white twine from theTwinery. The skull is an embellishment from Jolee's Boutique.

This card would be very easy to mass produce if you have alot of card to send out. Hope you enjoyed. See you back here tomarrow.

BYE, BYE, for NOW
