Good morning! As I said yesterday, I thought I should participate in Kristina's challenge this week seeing as there was no Pumpkin Pie.....here's the gorgeous inspiration piece:And here is the card I made for it....I'm really happy with the way it turned out!
I know that I said I wasn't going to make a Christmas card....but the CS was just sitting there on my desk after I'd finished my card and I started thinking....dangerous I know....and came up with this very simple and elegant Christmas card:
It was really nice to sit and make 2 cards....I actually loved these colours so much I could have made more, but time ran out. So you might see this colour combo again in the near future! It's a bit hard to see, but there's actually lots of glitter on this Christmas one....very sparkly in real life!
Supplies:
"Follow Your Heart"
Cardstock: Certainly Celery, Old Olive, Sahara Sand.
Other: Eastern Elegance rub-ons, Certainly Celery wide grosgrain ribbon
(that's it...no stamping, nothin' fancy happening here!)
"Love, Hope, Peace"
Cardstock: Sahara Sand, Old Olive, Whisper White
Stamps: Holiday Wishes
Ink: Certainly Celery + Old Olive Marker for the highlighted words
Other: Old Olive/River Rock double sided satin ribbon (Theatre ribbon originals), two-way glue pen, Dazzling Diamonds glitter.
Hope you all have a great day,
Kristie

Both cards are very. I really like this color combo.
Wow ... those rub-ons look fabulous ... gorgeous cards.
Love them both!
And you are correct about my Macro setting. I wish there was a way to make it stick so I do not have to remember to set it each time. This re-training thing ... I dunno... ;-)
MILESTONE ALERT!!!! I am hit counter # 10,003, so you've crossed that threshhold! ! Woo-hoo! Congrats!!!!
WOW, for both
Definitely love the Christmas card the best - cute bow. I was fully expecting you to turn up for a stay over. I was thinking of stamping into the wee hours of the morning, so technically it won't be a sleep over, lol.
Love them both but particularly the Christmas Tree one- the colours really suit that elegant stamp set don't they?
these are both gorgeous, I think my first one is my fave (I very nearly used those rubons myself!)
This is just gorgeous Kristie, I so want to play with these colours very very nice, but feel crappy sont dont think I will lol.
Very nice cards! I like how the rub ons in the first card frame the negative space. Defintiely a color combo I will have to try myself!
love both, but I am partial to the odd flower or too, so have to say love the first one the best!!
This is so elegant and the ribbon is just perfect here.
ooooops! I forgot to say I really love the stamping, the words, and the whole design on your first card too. I have you on my feed list. Love your blog.
oh lovely! Very elegant! Oh I could have done that one, I always forget to check on Thursday night.
I love the flowers that you stamped on the first card, where are they from?
Congratulations on being an aunty again!
