Peace on Earth (Day)!

The current prompt at Jingle Belles Rock is in honor of Earth Day!  Recycle, recycle, recycle!

We are encouraged to used recycled materials in our cards....this one is made with a portion of a photo card.  The "Merry Christmas" part was cut from that photo card.



I used paper packs from Joann's....Ms. Sparkle & Co., some buttons from my stash and twine from Timeless Twine.  Hoping to make more, I have gone through my cards and have about 10 recycled elements ready to use, just no time!!

Color Challenge - Jingle Belles Rock

The latest challenge at Jingle Belles Rock is a color challenge!  It's called "an orange in your stocking" and yes, I do remember getting an orange in my stocking!  LOL

This is the inspiration photo:
What I see when I look at the photo is the stark white background, with the vibrant and cheerful accent colors of melon/orange and shades of green.

So this is what I came up with!



Stark white background which I embossed with snowflakes!  Popped up my accent colored design (Unity Stamp Co. Ornamental Season) which I colored with my Tombow Art Markers and some star dust stickles! I love the contrast!
