Happy New Year my friends!! Can you believe that it's 2023? When I set the date for posting I was shocked when I saw the numbers! Twenty three years ago we were worried that all the computers were going to fail because of Y2K! Now our worries are very different. After three years of the pandemic Covid paid a visit to our house over Christmas, first my daughter, then my husband and then me. Fortunately it wasn't terrible but not something I look forward to ever getting again.
Today at the Color Hues we are starting a new year of challenges and welcoming three very talented ladies to our Design Team. We begin the year with the Color Hues Color Challenge #55! Don't you just love light pink and gold together. I'm always excited for a chance to do some foiling, I got my FoilPress warmed up and got to work!
I ink blended Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink on to a panel of cardstock and let it dry. Next I hot foil stamped The Greetery's Deco Triangle on to the panel--swoon! I cut the rectangle, also from the Greetery, and then added champagne glasses from Pretty Pink Posh's Happy New Year, and a foiled Perfect sentiment from PinkFresh.
The foiled details are gorgeous!
Happy New Year, Tracey! So sorry to hear about the visit from Covid, but glad to hear it wasn't too terrible. I love this card--the foiled background and sentiment are gorgeous, and the champagne glasses with bubbles are so much fun!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Tracey! This is a wonderful way to bring cheer[s] to the next year - let's hope we won't have unwanted surprises!

Perfect New Year's card, Tracey. Foiling over ink blending looks fabulous.
ReplyDeleteLovely card, Tracey! Knock on wood, Covid has not touched the hubs and I yet. So sorry it came to your house for Christmas. Hope you're all on the mend. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you and James, Tracey! Sounds like you had a rotten Christmas although knowing you were surrounded by your immediate family had to make having Covid a tad better…at least you were all together. I am so very sorry! It’s time for 2022 to hit the road. I hope 2023 is better for both of us. As for your wonderful card….I love it so very much! All the foiling looks terrific, especially on pink! Awesome job! Hope you feel as good as new soon.
ReplyDeleteSuch a fabulous card Tracey, with quite the art deco feel! Love the background foiling and the classy champagne glasses. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteLooks like we were thinking along the same lines with our foiled backgrounds for this challenge Tracey...it's FABULOUS!! Your card definitely says CELEBRATE and I'm loving all the foiled shine from your background and sentiment!! So excited to be joining the Color Hues team and being teammates with you again Tracey!! Hugs. :0) (P.S. Sorry to hear about Covid making an appearance at your house over the holidays, but glad to hear you're all doing ok now!!)
ReplyDeleteBeautifully designed and created, Tracey. Glad your covid bout was less severe.
ReplyDeleteTracey, I am so sorry to hear your family got hit with Covid over the holiday. It's no fun and I am with you - hope to never get it again! Your card is a delightful way to wish someone a happy new year, I just love it! Your inked panel is gorgeous and so is the gold foiling. WOW!

ReplyDeleteAh, this is beautiful. The gold foiling, on pink is really lovely. Argh! I wish I could extend the budget to a foiling machine.
