C4C54 - Color Challenge


Hey everyone, it's Saturday and that brings around another challenge with the Crazy Girls! Jocelyn is our hostess for September, and this week she's given us a color challenge, as shown above. So see what you can do with these colors, and head over to the C4C blog to link up your creation using Mr. Linky!

For my card, I pulled out this new Gary Robertson image from Impression Obsession. I stamped the image using Barn Door distress ink, then heat set it with clear embossing powder. I cut out the image, then stamped it again on the kraft cardstock using black ink and mounted it with foam tape squares for dimension. I computer-generated the sentiment on the tag using a new font I just got! Kimberly Geswein (who remembers MamaKimberly from SCS?) designed this font, called Give You Glory, using my daughter Kaylie's printing! Isn't it cute?
See what the other Crazy Girls have created using these colors for today's challenge, and be inspired!


I hope you'll make some time this weekend to join in! Happy stamping!
