Happy Thursday, friends! Can you believe it's December 8th--yikes! So much left to do before Christmas. But you didn't come here to hear me whine...you came here for some eye candy, didn't you?! It's color challenge week at Create with Connie & Mary...take a look:
Isn't this a fun take on the traditional red and green? I love Basic Grey with anything! I also used this fabulous sketch from this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge:
and was inspired to ink up an old favorite Christmas set, Delightful Decorations:
I flipped the sketch to the left-hand side, somehow it just worked better for me that way. The Basic Grey base was layered with some Lucky Limeade designer paper from the In Color patterns stack as well as a fun Poppy Parade pattern that looks like snowflakes. I wrapped the panel with some yummy Basic Grey satin ribbon and added a big bow with a a glue dot.
The ornaments were clear embossed in the challenge colors on Whisper White and layered atop a big beautiful Silver Glimmer circle--isn't it lovely?
