I Love these Colors!!

Today's Color Challenge on splitcoaststampers was a fun one. I must confess that I felt a bit like I cheated because I made this card last month when I got my new supplies, but while my camera was whacko! So, it never got uploaded here or on SCS! So it is not new to me, but it is to the world! LOL!! By showing it to you now, you get to see it with my watermark...how cool is that?

Why didn't I make a new card today? Well, work was exhausting but productive today. Began the day with prayer alongside my staff and volunteers and the ultrasound trainer. I am so proud of my volunteers! And my Nurse Manager has worked so hard getting them ready for this! She's a gem! It will be a blessing to see how many more moms will choose life for their precious babies in the future!!

I then did a lot of work for our upcoming Walk for Life...had a board meeting...budget for the new fiscal year approved...discussed some cases with my Client Services Manager... I was Too Tired to Stamp!! I am glad I had this card waiting for the gallery!! All of the products used are from Stampin' Up!

I love the new Concord Crush...it is such a deep, saturated color! The softness of Pear Pizzazz and Daffodil Delight balance it out. I used Elements of Style stamp set, and added some gemstones. (They were leftovers from the spring mini catalog...but you can get them now in the full-sized IBC!) The whisper white and pear pizzazz layers are texturized with my Big Shot Texturz Plates. I cut out the small sentiment, layered it on a large oval. Lots of ticket corner punch action here! The 1/8" taffeta ribbon in daffodil literally wraps it up!

Like it?? I do!! Guess I should send it to someone....

  1. Yes, I like it! It is going to take me a while to learn the new colour names though! Luckily I am getting a head start as we don't get them until September! Oh, and it's not cheating to use a card you already had made, that's just smart :)

  2. Wow! The concord crush certainly pops the entire card, doesn't it? Gorgeous!

  3. What a gorgeous card! I love that color combo and need to try it out for myself. I'm glad that your camera is working again so that you were able to post this beauty!
