Color Hues #77

25 Days until Christmas! We have a special new challenge over at the Color Hues starting today. The Color Hues Color Challenge #77 will be a month long challenge because we know how busy life can be right before the holidays!

I used products I bought last year but didn't use from PinkFresh Studios. The stamps, dies and stencils are so more fun to use! I first used the ornaments foil plate to foil the ornaments with silver foil. Next I used the coordinating Ornaments stencil set to colour the ornaments with three shades of pink. I used Catherine Pooler inks in Cotton Candy, It's a Girl and Party Dress. I used a bit of masking so that I could stencil the ornament tops with Catherine Pooler Pebbles ink.


The sentiment is from the Ornaments stamp set, silver embossed and cut with the coordinating dies. The die cuts the sentiment into three pieces. I cut extra layers and glued the, together to give it some dimension before adding to the card!


The stencils lined up with the foiled image perfectly. A tip when stencilling over a stamped or foiled image. Check three or four points of the stencil to make sure you are lining up directly over the image before you start and it will be perfect!


This month long challenge will be open until December 28th!

Wow, wow, wow, Tracey! What a gorgeous ornament-filled card! Love how the subtle foiling gives a wonderful bit of glam to the stenciled ornaments and pulls in that sparkly silver layer! Gorgeous! I hope you have a wonderful time during the holidays!

Sorry it's taken me so long to make the rounds! And a confession--I also bought this set last year and it's still unused! I only purchased the stamp, however, so I'll never be able to CASE this fabulous card! The silver foiling is so beautiful and the stenciling in the various pinks is so festive! Happy Holidays!
