Man did I have a hard time with today's colors. I needed a wedding gift card holder for a co-worker so this is for today's COLOR CHALLENGE - Going Really Vanilla and Monday's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE - Pop Up Gift Card Holder. I had picked up this yummy dp at Michaels on a recent shopping trip and it matches going gray so well I decided to try it for today, well the lines in the dp are white. So I tried using my Vanilla Craft Ink pad again and again CAN NOT get that vanilla to show. I ended up having to use some white detail EP to emboss it with. So my vanilla is now my ribbon. My image is from Sweetly Stamped from H & M STAMP COMPANY. Wouldn't you know it I head downstairs to take my pics and smear the not yet dried stickles. gggrrrr. I need to just go to work and try this again some other day. LOL. On the inside I stamped crosshatch bg with going gray on gong gray card base. Then the senimtent from Fancy Flex Phrases (whew what a mouthful that title is!) the same way and matted it on really rust circle scallop.
