It’s a color challenge this week at The Paper Players, and I needed a Happy New Home card for some dear friends we were visiting this weekend in their new home.
The challenge is to use Bermuda Bay, Crumb Cake, and Old Olive colors in a card.
So for my designer inspiration card for #PP257, I had fun using those three colors to make the new home stand out on the street.
I added the card to a basket with some wine, homemade cookies and some sea salt milk chocolate truffles, and off we went to visit our friends.
To make this card, I used the following:
- StampinUp Inks: Bermuda Bay, Crumb Cake, Old Olive
- StazOn Black Ink
- Whisper White and Craft Card Stock
- Stampinup Holiday Home Stamp Set
- Blender Pen to color the house
- Dimensionals to make the new home “stand out”
Hope my crafty stamping card-making friends will join us this week at The Paper Players Challenge. We always enjoy the inspiration and creativity.
And… Happy New Home Jim and Mary!
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
