The Color My Heart Color Dare has a brand new challenge – 9 squares of color and you can pick just three in a row – It’s a Tic Tac Toe Color Dare!!!
I struggled a bit with the January stamp of the month and didn’t create a lot with it. It’s a great stamp set, but it just didn’t speak clearly to me. I decided that if I was going to create with it – today would be a good day.
I chose the color combination of Fern, Juniper and Black and another pattern from the Make It From Your Heart Volume 4.
A recent technique that I’ve been using is to layer a piece of white cardstock to my base so that I have a place to tuck my ribbon and keep it hidden. It also adds a little support to your cards. I keep a few pieces cut (1/4 inch smaller than my card) and ready to go. You can use any color of cardstock, but I really like the white on white look. I usually attach it with some thin 3D foam tape.
Make sure you get your January Stamp of the Month ordered soon – there’s just a few more days and it will be gone for good.
Love your card! I really like that black and white strip with the fern and juniper. So glad you could play along this week!
