FCTSC Color Challenge #5



Here is the card that I made for From C to Shining C's color challenge. The colors were brown, light blue, pink, and green. I was having difficulty with this one for some reason, still not sure why, so I decided to have some fun with my Cuttlebug! I used 4 different embossing folders on the card, I think the brown is Stylized Flowers, green is Swiss Dots, the pink is Bloom Dots?, and the blue is Distressed Stripes. The stamp on the pink is a little postmark that says Thinking of You, not sure where I got that one from. I actually really like how this turned out, I typically only use one embossing folder per card, so this was a change for me. It definately added a lot of interest!

Color Challenge & Limited Supply Challenge


I actually combined two challenges from Splitcoast Stampers into one card. The Color Challenge was to use Orange, Red and Blue. The Limited Supply Challenge was Circles, with the restriction of only using 1 stamp set. I did not use any stamps on this card, but I did use two Cricut cartridges. The Oh Happy Day is from the Wild Card cartridge (if you are a cardmaker and don't have this cartridge, it is a MUST have!) and the lollipops are from the Mickey and Friends cartridge, it is the icon border on one of the Goofy buttons. To keep it simple, I just used one of my fine tip Bic markers to make the dots along the edge. Not a fan of the color combo, but sometimes that is what a challenge is all about, trying something you wouldn't ordinarily try!
