Happy New Year, Color Hues!

 Starting the year with friends at The Color Hues, are you ready? We have a new challenge for you to use pale pink and gold. Does that bring to mind images of flowers, hearts or a gala new year? Maybe snowmen or a sweet scene? We can't wait to see what you make. Hopefully you are able to find some crafty time now that the holiday flurries are over and join us.

I am thinking spring! Using a 3D embossing folder,  I brayered pink inks directly onto the recessed side, added my white card stock and fed it through the machine. 



It did take me a couple tries to find the right color (WPlus9  Pink Piggy) and the best sandwich for even coverage. The color fills in the background and the white flowers are raised with dimension.

It was so easy to make this. I added a label and sentiment from The Greetery, a gold mirror card stock mat and gold sequins. I wanted to let the floral pattern shine.

I've taken quite a break from stamping over the holiday, so I will be transitioning into more frequent posting. It may take me awhile to get my mojo back.




I'm so happy to welcome our new designers to Color Hues! Wishing all of you a Happy and healthy New Year. 

Be yourself

          Have delight in your craft 

               Make something beautiful!
