We have a beautiful color challenge for you this week on Create with Connie and Mary! I've actually used this color combination a lot during the holidays and it is especially perfect for New Year's!
I love the single stamp, Happy New Year, that Stampin' Up! came out with before the holidays! I don't do a lot of New Year's card, but I have had occasions once in a while. I'll be keeping this stamp in my supply, just because I think it is very unique!
Here are the details:
- The base is 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 of Whisper White cardstock, folded in half to make the card.
- I layered on 4 x 5 1/4 Pool Party that I embossed with the Lacy Brocade folder.
- I added a 2 1/2 x 4 strip of Silver Glimmer Paper down the center.
- I stamped the Happy New Year image with Versamark on Whisper White and embossed with Silver Embossing Powder. Then I colored in the numbers with Pool Party marker.
- I cut out the image with the Apothecary Accents and used the Essentials Piercing Template around the edges.
- Finally, I added a bow of Pool Party Ruffled Ribbon adhered with Mini Glue Dots.
I love how elegant it looks! Make sure to check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this special color challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary.
