Color Chef #17





When I first learned the colors for this week's Color Chef Challenge, I was a little hesitant. I don't really have any DP in Vineyard Berry or Cocoa, but I quickly figured it out.

I had this piece of cs already embossed with my CB folder and decided to use a sponge and die it with my ink. The rest fell together. Scallop Nestie and ribbon in Cocoa, stamped images and MS butterflies in Vineyard Berry, and taha!


I recently saw on Jeanette Lynton's blog this card which used a simple CD sleeve as a card envelope. I found a box of 100 for only $3 at BigLots last week so I wanted to try my hand at this cool idea. I sponged cocoa ink around the center and then 1st and 2nd gen'd the same stamps I used on the card. Cool idea huh? I know you want to try it too! Hee hee!
Materials: All CTMH. Colonial White and cocoa cs, vinyard berry and cocoa inks, Treasure Life ss, Follow Your Dreams ss, Simple Stitches ss, cocoa grosgrain ribbon, sponge, sanding kit.
Other: Nestie scallop circle, Paisley CB folder, MS butterfly punch, pearls.
