Kristina's Color Challenge #23

Woosh, I almost missed this one, but I am sliding in with a few minutes to spare. Aren't these flowers amazing? I think they are so pretty and look like fall! Here is my take on the colors this week...

I started off with a So Saffron as my base, and then cut strips in Bravo Burgundy, Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie, I ran them through my Cuttlebug in embossing templates to give them a little texture, and then sponged the edges in Chocolate Chip. I stamped my sentiment on Very Vanilla, and added those cute flowers, the final touch was to tie my knot with 5/8 inch Chocolate Chip grosgrain ribbon. So there you have it...Thanks for looking!

**Edited to add** The stamp set I used for this card is THIS one from Papertrey.

KWerner Color Challenge #22

Wow...now this presented way more of a challenge than I originally thought~ The inspiration picture was great...love that curtain, but I sat with the papers and ink in front of me~and no mojo flyin...finally this is what I came up with. I added just a little Tangerine Tango~oops not one of the colors listed, but definately in the photo so it should kind of count..right?? :)

Anyway here's my card, thanks for stopping by!

Kristina Werner Color Challenge #21

I always plan on playing with Kristina's color challenges, but always run out of time~or just don't get around to it~ But today I had to make a card for a cute neighbors 3rd birthday party. I thought Kristina's color combo would be perfect for the occasion! Have you seen the newest birthday set in the Fall-Winter 2008 Idea Book and Catalog??? Party Hearty is SO fun! Thanks for stopping by!!!

This card starts with a Kiwi Kiss base, then I used Whisper white and stamped the word Celebrate in Kiwi Kiss, Pacific Point, Regal Rose, and Rose Red. The cupcake image is stamped in Pacific Point, Kiwi Kiss, and Regal Rose mounted onto a Regal Rose square. Finished off with some orange/goldish rhinestones-the flames for my candles!
