Merry Monday #215 - Dark & Light Pink w/ Gray or Silver




Hello friends.  This week at Merry Monday, the fabulous Kristie is back as a Guest Designer, and she is asking us to do a color challenge and use dark & light pinks, and gray or silver on our Christmas cards. 


Isn't that just the cutest graphic?!!  I decided to make a shaker card and used an older SU! set called We Woosh You.  Take a look:


I stamped the snowman with Versamark and then heat embossed with silver.  Next I masked off the snowman and stamped the trees a few times also in Versamark, and once again heat embossed in silver.  I used black Stazon ink to stamp my sentiment on the clear acetate I used for my window piece and then attached that to a Gina Marie Designs Scalloped and Stitched Border die cut.  I also used the same die to cut out a piece of fun foam to give me the depth I needed for the Pretty Pink Posh sequins to move around freely.  Here's a closer up view for you:


So now it's your turn and we can't wait to see what you come up with using this color combo!  Stop on over to the MERRY MONDAY site for more inspiration and all the info you need to play along! 

Thanks so much for stopping by today...I love it when you do!  :0)

Thanks for your kind comment on my entry this week.
I LOVE your cartoon-y skiing snowman, the angle/slope of the card in particular. And who can resist pink sequin snowflakes?!
