Today is the launch of the new challenge over at Crafty Cardmakers.
It is Hosted by Vix who asks that you make an item (card/tag/altered thingy) using ONLY the colours Brown/Cream/Pink. You can use other colours for faces but otherwise just brown, cream and pink.
We are sponsored today by ONE STOP CARD CRAFTS who are offering a £10 voucher for their store as a prize.
I decided to steer away from cute and so who says Christmas has to be red and green?
My card uses a lovely Christmas Decoupage stamp from Imagination.
I have stamped the image onto several different pieces of paper from my stash and then cut and mounted them as illustrated.
I added some ribbon, vellum, a ribbon slider and some micro beads.
I just loved this colour combo.
In fact I liked it so much that I made a second card with some of the left over pieces.
This time I mounted it onto some brown gingham paper.
I used a small square punch to create this card candy.
Some different ribbon this time, but another ribbon slider.
I hope you have fun with this new challenge, I certainly did.
I look forward to seeing what you all come up with.
I am staying in Peterboro at the moment with the lovely Janice and Andy from Sir Stampalot.
We have managed another relatively early night again tonight but I am sure we will be back to our usual midnight finishes tomorrow.
I had better get to bed now so that I can make the most of it.
Don't forget to pop in and say hi at the shop, and of course don't forget to enter the challenge.
Nite, nite
