CCMC 228

Good morning, Friends! Just a few more days of November left! Wow!!! Create with Connie and Mary have another fabulous challenge for us this week! This week we are being challenged with color. Take a look at these fantastic colors!


Wisteria Wonder, Baja Breeze and Silver Glimmer. BEAUTIFUL!!! Love these colors together! And I wanted to keep with the season so I made a Christmas card.


I just love Wisteria Wonder and will be very sad when it has to say good-by at the end of the Stampin' Up! year. It is such a beautiful soft purple! So I was glad to be able to use it for a Christmas card. I used the sketch from the Fab Friday challenge blog. First, I adhered a piece of silver glimmer paper to a card base of Wisteria Wonder. Then I adhered a strip of designer paper from the Twitterpated pack to the bottom half of a piece of Whisper White. I stamped the greeting from Greetings of the Season in Wisteria Wonder. Then I pierced two circles using the Essentials Paper Piercing pack. I used the Merry Minis punch pack to punch two ornaments from silver glimmer paper. These are popped up inside each circle. I used a ruler and the Wisteria Wonder marker to draw lines to make them look like ornaments. Then I tied a piece of Wisteria Wonder ruffled ribbon around this panel and popped it up onto the card.

Be sure to visit the Create with Connie and Mary website to see what the other designers did with these fabulous colors! I hope that you will be inspired and find some time to play along with us this week! We always love to see what you come up with! Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!
