Hey everyone!
This colour challenge was a hardy. I am not a huge fan of Real Rust since a close friend of mine (who will remain nameless….hi Theresa!) made a card with this as one of the colours. OMG!! It was…… something else! {a touch of sarcasm inserted here} It was a memorable moment. LOL! So it has been added to my colour {{shudder}} list along with Cameo Coral.
Here is the Challenge
and of course my creation
I hope you like it. I challenged myself even more by doing a Sympathy card. I have trouble choosing colours with this theme. But I guess making a card for such an occassion is never easy.
As you can tell by the first photo I clear embossed the tree and it stands out perfectly. The card is much nicer close up.
- Stamp set– Pocket Silhouettes, Thoughts and prayers
- Cardstock– Chocolate Chip, Really Rust, Close to Cocoa and Whisper White
- Ink– Chocolate Chip, Really Rust and Close to Cocoa
- Accessories– Chocolate Chip Ribbon, Slot punch, dimensionals, Clear embossing powder, Heat tool and Cutter Kit
And of course don’t forget to check out the rest of the DT
I hope you enjoy all their fabulous creations.
Wow, this is just gorgeous. Love how you’ve embossed the tree – very effective. Great job with the colours.

Love the way you’ve combined the two stamp sets. And BTW, Really Rust looks great next to certain colours, just not the colours I picked that day. LOL. The good news is, you’ll always remember me when you see that colour. *grin*

This is such a beautiful card Kirsty. I love Pocket Silhouettes and you’ve also inspired me to ink up my tree stamp sometime soon.
