CAS-ual Fridays Misting Challenge!

 Hi, there! How is everybody!


I've been running around trying to pull everything together for Christmas and it seems like I've neglected the blog-o a bit! Sorry about that!


I'm here today to share a card that I made for the CAS-ual Fridays challenge this week! This week is all about MISTING so I broke out some of my new Studio Calico Mister Huey's mists and went to town!


Here's the challenge:

And here's my card:

I just LOVE the textured look you get from mists! So fun to mix different colors to create a funky background! Here, I stamped Market Street Stamps' new background Mesh in Pumice Stone Distress Ink and then misted the whole panel with three different mists: Bluegrass, Dewey, and Estate Green! Love mists so much.... in fact, I love them so much that I'll have another misting project for ya tomorrow! See ya then!

Market Street Stamps Paint the Town Challenge!

Hi!
I'm here today to share a card I made for the latest Market Street Stamps Paint the Town Challenge over on the Market Street Stamps blog! Here's the challenge:

Ooh la la- I LOVE this color combination... not to mention that DRESS! Someday I want to look like that... lol... Until then, I'll just use her for inspiration!

Here's what I made:

Well... my purple's a little bright, but you get the idea... haha! Use what you have and be INSPIRED by the colors- you don't need an exact match! Anyways, I received my (seriously, ridiculously HUGE- blog giveaway coming soon!) prize package in the mail last week from my PaperCrafts World Card Making Day win and it had a paper pad in it that was PERFECT for this challenge! This paper is from the K&Company Sheer Simplicity pad (linked below!). And, I know, I know.... it's not even Christmas... what the heck am I doing making "love/valentine's day" cards, but it was how the colors made me feel so I went with it! ;)

I hope you'll play along with us! Head over to the Market Street Stamps blog to check out some more inspiration to get your wheels turning!

SO.... I'd like to share this fun, elegant Christmas card with you today:

Ooh la la! Look at those background stamps shine! I decided to bring some attention to these fabulous new background stamps by creating these large circular ornaments! I used the new Crate Paper Peppermint Collection to bring the warmth of the holiday season. The large pink ornament features the beautiful Flurries background stamp, and the medium ornament features the gorgeous new Grace background stamp! I also used a sentiment from the new Essential Holiday Elegance set! 

Here's a close up on the Grace ornament- after stamping the background, I misted the ornament with Heirloom Gold Perfect Pearl mist! SO pretty in real life!

From here, you're headed to Tifany DeGough's blog!  Enjoy the hop!  Thanks for your comments!  Remember to order your MSS from ihp before Wednesday to get the 15% discount!

Oh- I'm always a sucker for neutrals, but I totally let it take me over this time! LOL! LOVE the way it turned out though! I don't know where I got this sketch, but I found it in my sketch book the other day and knew EXACTLY what I wanted to do with it! This is the new background stamp FLURRIES (linked below) paired with a fabulously elegant sentiment from the ESSENTIAL HOLIDAY ELEGANCE set (linked below)!
