Embellish Magazine Color Challenge

Hello! 
Today's post features a color and design challenge from Embellish Magazine.  The challenge was to create a invitation using the colors green, red and craft/gold. 

The invite I created is to a wedding.  I love the sentiment from Unity's May KOM.  I decided  to incorporate it along with some letter stickers from Cosmo Cricket.  It reads "join us...for happily ever-after".
The stamped sentiment says " once in a while in the middle of an ordinary life love gives us a fairytale." 

Hope you enjoy! If you would like to play along, you have until July 17th.

Letter Stickers: Cosmo Cricket
Stamps:  Unity Stamps (May 2010 KOM)

Etsy Inspired Challenge

Greetings!
Today's post is all about inspiration.  Kimmieprout (on Etsy) designs polymer clay buttons.  The challenge on Etsy Inspired is to create something (card, layout, altered item) that brought you inspiration from the patterns and colors found on the designer's buttons.

I created this card by pulling the stamped images from the button in the Edithos collection.  I love the subtle pattern and simple design.  The stamps are from Unity Stamps (June KOM 2010).  Enjoy!
