Another card using mostly the same elements The centre image has a Whisper White pearl from the pretties set.

colour inspiration challenge 17




Not the best photo but will go with this for now.

Sage shadow, Rose Red & Regal Rose inks used to stamp a background using the level 2 hostess set "In the spotlight".

Prints Designer Series Paper in Rose Red for the middle strip and slight background, onto Sage Shadow cardstock.

White brads for the circle centres.

Stricktly speaking I didn't keep to the colour challenge as I added in silver embossing for the sentiment!

Whisper White cardstock was embossed using a cuttlebug, thanx Jodene!

This card was for an embossing challenge.
The Real Rust cardstock and the piece of Outlaw designer paper have been embossed in copper. The background stamp I used for this was Sanded, the ink Versamark. Best Wishes is also embossed in copper.
Hemp twine has been twisted and knotted before being stuck down with glue dots.
A star chip board accent was made by punching 3 plain stars from card stock, gluing together, then punching and gluing a piece from the Outlaw paper. Once dry, a hole was punched with the crop-a-dile to insert a pewter jumbo brad. A star was punched out of the Real Rust CS to reveal the underlying Choc Chip. The chipboard star was stuck on with dimensionals off set over the punched out star.
Other card stock colours are Very Vanilla & Kraft. All products are Stampin'Up!
