I wanted to play along with the Pals Paper Arts Challenge this week. I have to admit, this sketch threw me for a loop. It looks so simple, but coming up with 3 ideas for the small panels was difficult. That's why they call it a "challenge"! Stop by the blog and check out all the wonderful ideas from the Design Team! They are fabulous!
I actually started the card with a different paper, but after stamping the sled and skis from the new "Warm Wishes" stamp set from Stampin' Up!, (available Sept.1st) I knew that I needed a plaid to look like that cozy, lodge feeling. I searched through my box of Christmas papers and found a perfect scrap. I was so excited. I love this tartan plaid, but I don't know where it is from. Sorry!
My base card is Basic Black. I used the Zig Zag Stitched rectangle die from SugarPea Designs for my plaid. I stamped the skis and sled on Crumb Cake with Early Expresso ink and trimmed them down to size and mounted them with Basic Black to make them pop.
I sure hope you enjoyed my card today. It isn't often that I make a card without white paper or black ink. LOL! Please leave a comment and let me know your thoughts. I love to hear from you!
Wishing you a fabulous weekend!
TGIF!
HUGS!
