Gorgeous Color....

This challenge....from over at Core d'nations Cardstock is about
the color inspiration in the photo above. Is this STRIKING or
what?!! Just love the rich colors!! I think I captured it in my
"Birthday Elegance" card here:

I used my newly acquired Tim Holtz Kraft Core cardstock from Core d'nations.
I embossed and then sanded it. I used 2 embossing folders from Sizzix, the
background and the small "frame" that the sentiment is mounted to (I fussy
cut around that one).

Other detes....ribbon & trim from my stash....I made the stick pins w/beads
I got at Mikes, the patterned paper is MME Stella & Rose Hattie, the
stamped sentiment is Verve (Walnut Stain Distress Ink), MS butterfly punch,
and used bling from BoBunny.

Do you have Core d'nations you want to play with? Check out the challenge
HERE.

Take some crafty time for yourself today!
