And there's another former Friday Flashback card. But now it's time for today's all-new creation:
Hubs' aunt and uncle are hosting us for a big Thanksgiving hooferah next week, so I thought it would be nice to make a card for them. I used the color challenge from Create with Connie and Mary:
I admit, I was not at all sure about Tangelo Twist on my card...it's just so BRIGHT. But I think it works because there's so much Hello Honey on there. I also used the sketch from Just Add Ink:
Easy peasy! I cut a piece of Hello Honey cardstock to 3 3/8" by 5", stamped it, and then cut it into three strips that were 1 1/8" wide for my background pieces. Then I pulled out some other wonderful retired stamp sets for the sentiment and leaves, and bing bang boom my card was done. Which is good, because now I can tackle some other items on my to-do list :)
Cheers, peeps!
Supplies, last card only:
Stamps: French Filigree, Day of Gratitude, Curly Cute (all retired)
Ink: Hello Honey, Blackberry Bliss, Tangelo Twist
Paper: Hello Honey, Blackberry Bliss, Tangelo Twist, Whisper White
Accessories: Dimensionals
I LIKE it -- and the Tangelo Twist is just enough on there. Cute leaf stamp! I also like the card you made for "Hubs". But really, Chris -- shouldn't you drop the "little" from the brother moniker? I mean, he's LOTS bigger than you are. If you must call him anything,it should be younger. Now that's a twist since you've stopped aging and he hasn't. He's now your OLDER brother. Ha! So confusing.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the cards, though. LOVED IT!
Christy, I love the card you've created for our challenge at Just Add Ink this week. The colours look awesome together, and the card is perfect for the occasion. Thanks for joining in the fun at Just Add Ink. :)
ReplyDeleteThe Tangelo Twist is a great 'pick me up' with the Hello Honey for sure and I love those little leaves. Enjoy your Thanksgiving celebrations and thanks for joining the sketch challenge fun at Just Add Ink this week.
