Tuesday Trigger - Craving Navy

Hard to imagine, but I actually don't have a navy ink pad...Blue is not a color I often use.

                                                                        

Here comes the challenge for me. I decided to cut of strips of paper - thankfully I had some navy blue paper at home.....


I mounted them on white card stock and put grey paper strips on the sides.


I used two circle punches for the sentiment. The grass and sentiment are from Annabelle Stamps. The set is
called Garden Silhouettes and I choose it a while ago as my prize for a card, which won in their challenge. I added the grass because of the flower vase in the inspiration picture.


I added sequins and tiny gems for some sparkle. I hope you like it.


Yes, I know, there is a little bot of green in there - but on one of the DT's cards there were some orange noses on the snowmen, so I guess I should be fine here.....

Hey friend, hope you doing fine and feeling better. Love your beautiful card, great take on the challenge, lovely design and details. :-)
Hi, Cornelia: Just stopping by to look around--love your wonderful card--Navy is MY favorite color and I use it TOO much! I guess we 'balance out' since you said you rarely use Navy.

Love your blog,

Diane

Hallo Cornelia,
dafür dass du kein blau hast, ist die Karte doch ziemlich blau und schön geworden.

Oh, I do love it! So pretty and you were creative in making your stripes. I love the grey on either side of the stripes and of course I love the bling! Great take on the Trigger. TFS

Such a lovely card and a great take on the TT. A fabulous entry for someone who "doesn't do" navy!!

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
