Colour Hues #136

Hello Crafty friends! It's time for another new color duo at the Color Hues Color Challenge! Challenge #136 was chosen by talented teammate Julie Beech and she has selected Cream an Gold for us! 

Well I had to think for a bit and once I put my mind to it I made another tote bag card!

I used the Hero Arts Tote Bag die to make a tote in cream and gold. I used Spellbinders Pearl Gold paper for my gold. Once it was done I thought, I would love to have a real bag in these colours.


The card base was made from kraft cardstock and I used the Lawn Fawn Quilted Backdrop as my mat at 5 1/4" x 4".



The Happy Birthday sentiment is from Spellbinders Shopping Bag stamp set. I heat embossed it with Wow Metallic Gold Rich embossing powder!



The tote was attached with foam dots so that a gift card could put placed inside the bag!


If you haven't had a chance yet, head over to the Color Hues blog to see what my teammates have done! They have done an amazing job once again. I hope to see you play along with us!



 Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by!

Such a fun idea with this pairing, Tracey! I think that background really elevates the card! I really like that tote and your card, equally!

You're proving how versatile a bag die can be! Gold and cream would be elegant any time of the year. The lucky recipient gets two gifts--the gift card and the card itself!

Tracey, your choice to create the tote was brilliant! It looks so classy in cream and gold and making it a gift card holder will be a fun surprise for the recipient. Love this!
