One morning, my daughter was on the computer and logged onto Kmart's home page. Bedding was on the first page, and though I couldn't see the picture clearly from where I sat, an idea was born for this Play Date Cafe challenge: Color Splash using Brown.
I ADORE this image Jax found! It's one of the neatest bunny drawings I've ever seen.
Here's my Christmas-in-Spring card:
I used the ornament from Flourishes' All That Glitters, and the sentiment from Paperwhites. The single brown ornament was stamped on a scrap piece of white cardstock, colored, trimmed and popped up on foam dimensional stickers.
Some lace and bling were in order, too:
Our sponsor this week is The Twinery. Don't you just looove those gorgeous twine colors they sell?
I can't wait to see what you all do with this week's colors. I believe I could do a dozen more cards in this palette!
Thanks for joining me. :-)
Stamps: All That Glitters, Paperwhites - Flourishes
Paper: white - PTI; Early Espresso (border) - SU
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black - Tsukineko
Fibers: laces - JoAnn's; silver elastic cord

Beautiful for sure! Love the touch of bling!
Really love that the 'colour' here - who would have thought it would work so well? Always like a little bling too!

Very cool card, Colleen! The splash of brown looks amazing with black and white. :)
Great take on the challenge. Wonderfully coloured ornament and the bling is the perfect touch.

Beautiful card, and one closer to Christmas! I really do love the color palette, too, and that vintage bunny is awesome!
OH, Col! This is GORGEOUS! LOVE LOVE LOVE the ornament--beautiful image! And I LOVE how you highlighted it with coloring and gems! BEAUTIFULLY done!! You always amaze me! LOVE LOVE LOVE:)
That is a wonderful picture. It reminds me of a picture I saw as a child in a book at my Grandma's house. I would never have thought to do a Christmas card with these colors, but it really works well. I love how the ornament is hanging on the card!
How PRETTY and striking! Love the tiny touch of bling!
I like browns, too. Your card is sooooo pretty and I like how you added the rhinestones on that ornament...really made it look holiday-ish.
This is ever so pretty! LOVE how you've used it for a Christmas card! And your bits of bling are the perfect finishing touches!
Oh, yes, lace is in order. Beautiful card Colleen.
At first I didn't like the palette, but once I started thinking about it, I was so inspired. Love it in a Christmas card!!
Simply stunning Col!! Love how that ornament just pops off the card :)
