CSALY #17

Debbie of "the Paper Garden" will be hosting our challenges every 3rd week of the month and this week her challenge is a color combo challenge! The color combo is: Sage, Chocolate, Peach.
I used Stampin Up colors: Sage Shadow, Chocolate Chip, Apricot Appeal. I love this over sized snow flake, it is yet another one of my favorites! These colors look so pretty together! I just love how it turned out. It was so easy I made 8 of them....I am on my way to having a great supply of Christmas cards for this year!!!

CSALY #16




Vicki challenged us to add a little Zing with Christmas Bling this week! We could use Glitter........... Red, Green, Gold, Silver.........anything that suited our fancy! Rhinestones or Blingy Brads, Some Pretty Embossing anything that resembles Tinsel or Christmas Lights!
So as you can see I used gold embossing and red rhinestones as my zing! Once again this was a super fun week and I love how my card turned out. I made four, one for each sister!

CSAYL #15 - Color Challenge

This week Maria posted a color challenge for us! I like these colors together. The red with the teal and turquoise make an unexpected nice combo!




This was a fun challenge this week. I used a lot of pop up dimension on this card. I have been trying to on a few of these challenges to use images that are not typically in the "Christmas" category. We are doing 52 weeks of challenges and although I may have plenty of images, I want others to know that if you don't you can impressive and create fun cards by thinking outside the box.
Colors are all Stampin Up, Real Red, Taken By Teal, and Tempting Turquoise. I even used a little gold & glitter that you can see in the photo on the star.
