Colour Challenge at 52CCT

By
It's 52CCT time again and this week Mynnette has come up with a fabulous colour combination for us - take a look


Here are my cards


The first one is my lovely scribble tree from Wondrous Gift and it has been heat embossed with silver embossing powder. I then embellished it with green flat backed gems. It's been cut out and raised up on 3D foam pads and attached to white card stock which has been dry embossed with a snowflakes embossing folder. I then layered it on to purple card stock.


My second card is stamped with a Clarity stamp which has again been heat embossed with silver embossing powder. The white background has been stamped with some snowflakes from the Snow Flurries set and purple flat backed gems have been added to the centres. A large silver snowflake has been added to the middle of the O. This has all been layered up on to green card stock.
Please pop over to say hello to Mynnette my partner in crime and do hop over to take a look at the challenge.
See you soon - Jacqueline xx

    Love this contemporary colour scheme,and you know that I also love that Clarity stamp...there's so many ways to use what is essentially just a sentiment. I like the colours so much I think I will try them out myself. Thank you Ladies!

    LOVE these! All that white space makes me happy...and I ADORE the use of the "wrong" side of the embossing. AND ALL THAT BLING!!! Glorious! :)

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!!!
