Welcome back to our Create with Connie and Mary Inspiration Monday challenges. We have a winter color combination to inspire you this week!
HANDCRAFTED ELEMENTS
I haven’t used this die set much, so wanted to use it on today’s inspiration card! I added in the greeting and pine branches from Christmas Classics stamp set. I needed a pop of the Berry Burst color at the top, so I used my Berry Burst Stampin’ Blend and colored in the silver Simply Element Trim! The silver peeks thru and coordinates with the silver Specialty Paper! Cool!
Stampin’ Details:
-
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Pool Party cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Misty Moonlight was stamped in the upper right corner with the pine branch from Christmas Classics and Misty Moonlight Ink several times.
- A 4 x 4 piece of Snowflake Magic Specialty Designer Paper was torn diagonally and added to the bottom left corner.
- The ornament was cut from Basic White cardstock with the dies and the oval from Pool Party cardstock. They were adhered together and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The silver Simply Elegant Trim was colored with the Berry Burst Dark Stampin’ Blends, tied in a bow and added to the top of the ornament with a Mini Glue Dot.
- The greeting was stamped with Misty Moonlight Ink on 3/4 x 4 piece of Berry Burst cardstock and the end torn at an angle to match the DSP.
- Some silver Festive Pearls were added to the centers of the fleurs on the ornament.
This definitely took a turn different than I imagined, but I really like it! OK…check out what Mary did with the Inspiration Monday Challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary!
