Kristina’s 41st Color Challenge

These are difficult colors for me to work with yet I absolutely love them together and how sharp they look together.  This is my first attempt… I think I’ll play a little longer and make a few tweaks to this card.  What d’ya think?  I loosely followed the sketch challenge 214 on SCS and of course stuck with Kristina’s colors: Riding Hood Red, Basic Black, Basic Gray, and Whisper White.

PCP Color Challenge #7

A day early… but I needed to stamp something!  The craziness of the holidays didn’t allow a lot of stamping time so it felt good to stamp again today.  And… I took a picture of it that I think actually came out well and now can’t find my USB cord for my camera – go figure.  So here’s a scan of it – oh well.  (Remember, anyone can join PaperCraftPlanet.com!!)

The inspiration piece from a sale Pottery Barn catalog I received in the mail the other day.  The colors are: Kiwi Kiss, Pumpkin Pie, Creamy Caramel, Chocolate Chip and Naturals Ivory or Very Vanilla.

My creation:
 

It uses a NEW stamp set from the upcoming Spring/Summer catalog coming out in January.  The set is called Petal Pizazz.  I took apart a few of our rhinestone brads and simply glued the rhinestones in place.  The layout I took from a Christmas card we did in a class in November.  Hope you like it!  What can you create with these colors?

Heritage Holidays

Unfortunately I think that most people overlook this fabulous stamp set in the catalog.  I have played with it several times (for one, I am doing a class featuring the Heritage Holidays stamp set coming up on November 10th) and this is my latest creation using the set.  If you’re coming to my Christmas Card stamp a stack on November 6th then you’ll be making 3 of these!  Lucky you!

And Kristina’s challenge this week was pretty vague – Use Red – any color red as the main color of the card.  So I think this works!   Let me know what you think!  Oh and thank you to Becky Roberts, another SU! demo, for inspiring the layout of the card.
