Merry Monday #248 {Color Challenge!}

Happy Merry Monday! 

This week, our challenge is being brought to you by Marcia:

This challenge was great! It totally made me step out of my comfort zone as I was having a real struggle adding the green in there LOL.... thanks, Marcia!

I just received this sunburst die from Stampin' Up! and I have been itching to use it - and figured this was as good a time as any ;) I added the snowflake from Paper Smooches and popped up that layer to give it some dimension then die cut the Happy Holidays from Eggplant with my Neat and Tangles die. 

It's hard to see in the photo (sorry) but the white base is layered on green, then on the purple :) 

Thanks for stopping in and be sure to hop on over to the Merry Monday Christmas Card blog HERE and link up with us - always good to have some cards done early for the hectic busy season! Cheers!

Merry Monday #215 {Dark/Light Pinks, Grey or Silver}

Welcome back to another wonderful, "pretty" inspirational challenge this week from Merry Monday. Miss Kristie is back this week as our Guest Designer and boy, what a lovely photo she's sharing with us to use as our jump off point!

I colored up this cutie-pa-tootie "Holiday Cheer Snowman" from Jennifer Nilsson in pinks and grey and then layered him on grey - SO CUTE! 

I decided to dry emboss the light pink background panel for some added texture and the sentiment is from a Neat and Tangled.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
