Just Add Ink #180...

Good morning!....It's time to share our challenge for this week over at Just Add Ink and that is to "Just Add Colouring"  Now that can be using Pencils, Markers, Crayons or whatever your favourite colouring medium may be!

I added colouring by using my blender pen and markers scribbled on acetate. I embossed the gorgeous Poinsettia from Stampin-Ups Joyous Christmas, using Cherry Cobbler E/P on Real Red card stock and shaded using my Cherry Cobbler marker and blender pen. The leaves were embossed with Gold E/P on Pear Pizzazz card stock and shaded with Old Olive.

Don't forget to pop over and check out the design team's gorgeous projects for inspiration.

Traditional Festive Flurry....

I thought l would use the Festive Flurry Framelits with Cherry Cobbler Core'dinations for this one and love the look and velvety feel of that snowflake, once it was embossed. I kept this one "VERY" simple, keeping the snowflake as the focus and not fussing to much with the rest, making it super quick to put together and perfect for a mass produced card.

Once again l used the "Season of Style" dsp and picked out the colours to coordinate........

Holiday Sneak Peeks.....

Don't you just love a "New Catty" or even more, the contents...:0) I must say the Stampin Up Holiday Catalogue is always a highlight for me....drool! I love all things Christmas and there are so many lovely Christmas and Holiday goodies in this one, that I'm thoroughly enjoying my playtime at the minute....So l thought l would share one of the cards I've created with some of them...well, lot's actually! I don't think l could possibly have added anything else...:0)

A rather more traditional colour combination on this one, but I'm loving the colours in the "Seasons of Style" DSP pack and love how they look paired up with the Christmas Collectibles Ornaments. 

All of these products are available from tomorrow and if you would like to see more projects, pop back later to see what else I've been playing with.
