ok a color challenge for this CAS on SCS (vanilla, red, kraft, brown, orange optional)...not my forte...but i said i'd try and this is the result...i chose the grateful stamp partly for the fall/harvest/thanksgiving and partly because i am feeling grateful right now...my blessings far outweigh my laments...tho there have been some tough and sad...emotionally draining times recently...but that's life...we have to live it as best we can and in my case rely on faith in God...good people...embracing the chaos...and love...remember no matter where you are...no matter where they are...you should always kiss them goodnight...Paper: very vanilla, crumb cake/kraft
Ink: early expresso
Stamps: small script
Accessories: real red ribbon, cuttlebug, embossing folder

ReplyDeleteYou did a great job with the challenge. A very pretty clean and simple card.
ReplyDeleteOh, you did a wonderful job using your kraft card stock and I especially love the color ribbon you chose. It works so well together! Your embossed background is perfect as well. I love my cuttlebug, it's one of my most used craft items!
ReplyDeleteGreat job. Sometimes CAS cards can be diffucult.
ReplyDeleteLove the texture and the "pop" of red!
ReplyDeleteWonderful card, and even more wonderful write-up. I hope your tough times start to get better, but I'm glad you can still be grateful for what you do have. :)
