Fab Friday 04 Challenge

Another lovely challenge from Mindy's Fab Friday challenge: http://fabfridaystampinchallenge.blogspot.com/2012/10/fab-friday-04.html?m=1
The challenge is to use these colors: Midnight Muse, Island Indigo, Summer Starfruit. What a great combo!
My submission is a CAS (clean and simple) one. Base layer of midnight muse, Island Indigo lattice glued to base, single sentiment stamped, punched with a circle, then adhered one of these paper roses. This time I tried it using the Blossom punch instead of the Fancy Flower punch. Love the look!
Another awesome challenge!

Fab Friday 03 Challenge Post

Hi All! Another great Fab Friday Challenge, this one is another layout! Here is the Post: Fab Friday 03

This is the layout for the challenge:


I had a blast with this one. These challenges really get me wanting to truly create something Fabulous! I am pretty pleased this time!


Core'dinations Cardstock stamped and silver embossed for sentiment, then embossed and sanded for the lighter green look of the pattern. Snowflake is embossed in iridescent ice powder, then stamp resisted over top with Gumball then Early Espresso Ink for the tree, using a tissue to rub away ink off of embossed area. It created a smudge, but it gives it a shadowy look which I like.

Faceted Button has a rhinestone in the center for added bling.

Stamps: Snowflake Soiree, Evergreen Paper: Gumball Green CS and Core'dinations CS, Whisper White, Silver Glimmer Ink: Versamark, Gumball Green, Early Espresso Accessories: Lace Brocade Embossing Folder, Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder, Vintage Faceted Buttons, Rhinestone Jewels, Silver Embossing Powder, 2 1/2" Circle Punch, Sanding Block
