WWC44: Anything Goes With Weddings

It's another Watercooler Wednesday Challenge!

 

This one is fun because we often get into a jam

when we need a wedding or anniversary card.

Now you can join our challenge and have a card ready!

I made an anniversary card because I consistently

forget those family events.  Then I scramble to make

an anniversary card and get it in the mail. 

I wanted kind of a formal, elegant card so I used 

Black Glimmer paper (p 47 of Holiday Mini),

Red Foil Sheets (p 26 of HM) and Fancy Foil Designer

Vellum on page 149 of the regular catty.  The sentiment

comes from the Teeny Tiny Wishes set on page 95.

The "happy" foil was made with the Hello You Thinlits

on page 172.

Wednesday Watercooler WWC43 - Kath's Color Challenge

Soooo sorry that I'm posting this late.  I was in AZ

with my Mom last week and still haven't gotten my 

head settled.  Travel tends to "muddle me".

 Today is Kath's beautiful color challenge!!

My offering features the Lighthearted Leaves on page 44

of the Holiday Mini.  This set is retiring, so grab it while you can.
I cut out the leaves with the coordinating
Leaflets Framelits Dies on page 172 of the regular catty.
They are such a wonderful combination!

I took one of the Snowflake Elements on page 23 and 

pressed it into a Tangelo Twist ink pad.  After it dried,

I cut it up and applied it in several places on the card.

The "ribbon" is faux suede.

So scoot on over to the Watercooler and join our
color challenge!

 

Snow Place Penguin

The Snow Place set with coordinating Snow Friends Framelits,

 on page 33 of the Holiday Mini is simply a good time.

I also enjoy adding the File Tab edge to cards because

it makes them extra special!

WWC42 Bev's Inspiration Challenge

Aren't Wednesdays wonderful?!

Half way through the week, plus the Watercooler Challenge.

This week is Bev's Inspiration Challenge.

To be honest, Inspiration Challenges are a challenge for me.

I guess I get crazy trying to figure out whether to 

use the colors, forms, sketch or what.

For my project, I attempted to mimic the concept

of pillows across a couch.  I embossed the pattern from

the smallest leaf in the Lighthearted Leaves set (on page

44 of the Holiday Mini) on squares of c/s that corresponded

with the colors in the inspiration photo.  I tried silver embossing

powder to correspond with the silver lighting, but 

liked gold better.  I always think of laying on the couch 

as "chilling", so used the sentiment from the

Snow Place set on page 33.

 The couch "material" is made out of a layer of
Timeless Elegance Designer Series Paper (p 143).

So please add your interpretation of this challenge to
our linky on the Watercooler Challenge site.

Iridescent Every Blessing

Every Blessing is a quintessential Christmas set.

In this example, I stamped the image and sentiment first.

Next, I covered with versamark ink and then 

Iridescent Ice Stampin Emboss Powder.   It makes for 

a nice, sparkly presentation.
