Just Us Girls Color Week #267
I am going to share two cards here today. The first one that I made really didn't have enough red in it for my taste, so I made another.
Because I am too lazy to do two posts, I will only do one and show you both of them. At the bottom of this post, I will tell you which one that I entered. :)

| Here is a close up of the bow. |
Here, I started with a base of gold CS from Stampin Up. The next layer is Turquoise Sea from GKD. I heat embossed that with gold, using the Hero Arts, Highline Ironworks BG stamp. A border on the top was made with my Spellbinder border die. The beautiful bow is from Flourishes and colored with copic makers. R 24, R 37, R89. There is red Wink of Stella all over that bow too. The tag is from the same set, It's a Wrap. Sorry, no longer available.
The next card is the first one and I felt that the little bit of red, was not enough. See what you think.
For this card, I started with Turquoise Sea for base and added white that was embossed with Anna Griffin Cherry Blossom folder. I inked the folder with Turquoise sea ink before embossing. Winston the bear is rolling on a snowball and he is from Winter Tails by newton's Nook stamps. I made the panel with the sentiment from teal foil and Stazon ink. There is lots of Frozen glitter from GKD.

Well, now it is time to pick one and enter it in the contest. Wow, this is harder than I thought.
I pick the card with the red bow to enter in the Just Us Girls Challenge #267.
Thanks for stopping by and I do welcome any comments.

ReplyDeleteWell certainly both cards qualify and both cards are stunning!

And your snowy card is as beautiful too, love the background and all of that snowy goodness--on a card--WHERE it should be!!! Fabulous!!!
ReplyDeleteI love both of them. Really fantastic and beautiful works of art and you captured the right colors in each too! I am so envious of your stamping ability You are amazingly talented.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love, love, love these!!! Aren't those colors fantastic??? Hope I get time to play over there - seems like I never have enough time any more. That bow is awesome, colored perfectly. And that little Winston - well he just couldn't be any cuter, and I love what you did with the glitter on the snowball. And I'm adoring that embossing folder background, it's just gorgeous, you clever girl!
ReplyDeleteThey are both great! For the challenge, I think you made the right choice since the required colors are all so prominent. The other card is darling, though, and I just love it! Well done on both!!
