Delicate Ornaments and the Create with Connie and Mary Challenge 428
October 13, 2016
Time for another Create with Connie and Mary Challenge! This week it is a color challenge. Are you ready to see the color combination?
Isn't this a sweet combination of colors? It looks like spring to me. Unfortunately I was in a Christmas frame of mind when I worked on the challenge so you can guess that I had a hard time figuring it out. It took a while but it finally came to me...ornaments!
I used the Delicate Ornament framelits and cut the bases out of the color challenge colors and used Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper for the detailed overlay. I used Gold Glimmer paper for the ornament tops and Gold twine from the Baker's Twine Trio to tie little bows. The Sweet Sugarplum sequins are from the Fancy Frost Sequins assortment in the Holiday catalog. The ornaments were layered on to a piece of Fancy Frost Specialty DSP. This Specialty paper has beautiful embossed images on them. I wanted to highlight the embossed design so i randomly sponged Pear Pizzaz ink.
I hope you stamp along with the Create with Connie and Mary design team and submit a card for challenge # 428!
Gorgeous! I love these colors for Christmas! That embossed paper in the background is perfect for it! Great job with the color challenge this week!

Love the sparkly ornaments against the embossed paper - that is an unsung hero in our current catalogue! I keep forgetting these ornaments are now in the annual catalogue - you've inspired me to dig them out Sharon!

The glimmer paper overlay really adds that Christmas bling to your card. Love the challenge colors peeking out of the cuts. Very elegant.
