And here is our wonderful picture:

My STAMPlorations supplies:
Layered Holly, Peace Love Joy CUTplorations die

I actually used light grey card stock - it does not really show and my camera simply can not handle purple - it always comes out way too blue.... oh well. I spare you any explanations, I don't think you have trouble figuring out how I made this card...
Here is another view of it:


Our rules and prizes:
Players can link up as many projects as they want (1 project per blog post)
Players must use at least 1 STAMPlorations product (stamp, stencil, die, or coloring page, or digi stamp)
Prizes: $10 GC for the winner; $5 GC each to the 2 top picks
If there are more than 25 entries: 1 player will be randomly drawn to win her choice of CUTplorations dies worth up to $15

And don't forget:
Use code STAMPGIRLCORNELIA
to get 20% off on all stamps, stencils, and dies on all regular- and sale-priced items in the store

Sounds enticing? I sure hope so!
See you at the challenge!

Oh my. Loving your take on the inspiration...the card is truly lovely and I can just imagine how the purple looks on the pale grey. I hate it when out tools don't work properly but it doesn't matter in this case because your card is so beautiful.

Fabulous card Cornelia. Love your take on the photo with those beautiful leaves and berries. The gold elements adds so much to it. Great sentiment. Purple is always hard to photograph worse luck.

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.
