Colour Challenge at 52CCT

By
I think the heat is getting to me a little as I was not feeling too good yesterday. Too ill to craft even!!! So my post for the 52 {Christmas} Card Challenge is late - sorry!
The challenge this week is to use these fabulous colours


Now we do have some very strict rules when it comes to our colour challenges so please do check them out before you link up - of course we would never delete a card from our challenge but if you would like to be considered for an Honorable Mention (and who wouldn't?) you must follow the rules.

Ok - enough talk - here is my card


This is my favourite style of card - I love squares and repeating patterns so much! My ribbon is seam binding and I applied my double sided tape to the card first and then ruffled my ribbon as I went along - love this effect too.

Materials - Stampin' Up
Stamps: Pines & Poinsettias
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso, Always Artichoke
Card Stock: Very Vanilla, Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler
Accessories: Seam Binding Ribbon
(To order any of the above current items or items from the Annual Catalogue please e-mail me on deezinesart@gmail.com - a catalogue pdf can be found in the side bar. Items can be delivered direct to you - just £4.95 p+p any size order. Also see the special offers above in the top tabs - thanks).

    The pine cones and holly fit the color scheme perfectly! I really like the ruffled ribbon, too. I hope you are feeling better by now!

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
