Colour Challenge

By
It's Friday therefore it must be my weekly scramble to get my card uploaded to the Simply Stampin' challenge in time. This week it's a colour challenge


These are quite masculine colours however I don't own any masculine Stampin' Up stamps, I had also nearly run out of Not Quite Navy card stock - only a few scraps left, so I had to really think about this one.
As always I started out with a square card base this time in Very Vanilla. Strips of card stock were added and then some Boho Blossoms - take a look


My sentiment is from Simply Said and I also added a few gems.
I'm off to sit by the fire and drink a cup of tea - all that thinking made my head hurt!!
See you soon - Jacqueline xx

    I REALLY like the way that you've used the colors--all that brown and river rock with the pop of blue is amazing! :)

    Not Quite Navy and River Rock are a marriage made in heaven! I like the three strip lay out. Vx

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
