One Last Post For 2011

Hi there!  Happy New Year's Eve!  I didn't think I'd be back before the year closed out, but I have a quick post to share a card I made for two challenges, one that was finishing tonight.  My card is for the Inspired By...Challenge on The Crafter's Cafe site.  It was one of the challenges that was part of their Holiday Open House this past week. This challenge was to make a card or project inspired by one created by something/someone else and also share the project that inspired yours.  Fun!!  My card is also for this week's challenge on the Our Creative Corner blog which was to make a celebration card in these bright colors:


These aren't colors I usually work with, but they were perfect for the card I had in mind for the Inspired By...Challenge

Here is the creation that inspired my card:


The card was made by Zoe and shared on the Make It Crafty blog a bit ago.  The image is Lizzie With Gift and it can be found in the new MiC store here. 

Here is my inspired card:


Of course, I can't come close to Zoe's amazing coloring, but I hope I didn't embarass myself too much!  I started with Melon Mambo CS and layered with a bunch of patterned papers from the Webster's Pages Botanical Christmas/Fairy Tales Petite Papers pack.  I also used festive trims from some of my Webster's Pages Trim Cards.  Lizzie was printed on Cryogen White and colored with Copics.  I added some Stickles here and there for a little sparkle and that was it.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a safe and enjoyable New Year's Eve and see you again in 2012!
