Hello Dear Friends!
It's time once again for a new challenge over on the Double D Challenge Blog!
Diane is hosting today and as you can see by my blog title ... the theme is:
TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS
(Days 1 - 6)
1st Day Partridge In a Pear Tree
2nd Day Two Turtle Doves
3rd Day Three French Hens
4th Day Four Calling Birds
5th Day Five Golden Rings
6th Day Six Geese A Laying
Here is the fabulous mood board she has created to help inspire you . . .
Which day theme inspires you??
My choice from this fabulous mood board was the 5 Golden Rings
as depicted on my card below . . .
I have reached back into my older stash and came up
with these fabulous papers from the Graphic45 8x8 paper pad
called 12 Days of Christmas (how appropriate for today's challenge! lol)
This paper is circa 2013 but still LOVELY!!
My 'gold rings' were created using gold foil paper and the very
first set of Spellbinder dies I ever purchased (way back when) ...
the Classic Circle Die sets.
I didn't have any tiny, narrow red ribbon but I did have
this white ribbon and think it brought nice attention to my rings!
What do you think??
Diane has this fabulous Impression Obsession die up as the
prize to one lucky random winner. Remember ... you gotta play to win!
So, come play along using our theme and YOU might be that random winner!!
Be
sure to pop over to our Double D Challenge Blog and check out what the design
team ladies have created ... they are amazingly talented and I'm sure
you'll find more wonderful inspiration!

What a perfect inspiration from the mood board on this sweet Christmas card. I adore all of the traditional red and gold and I agree that the white ribbon really adds to the golden rings. Wonderful and amazing card.

ReplyDeleteThis is stunning Darlene! This G45 paper is one of my favorite lines and I wish they'd bring it back. I love how you created 5 gold rings!! So clever. The white ribbon really sets these off nicely. I'd say this is just perfect!

ReplyDeletesis, what a gorgeous gorgeous card, love it all...xx
This is the most fun challenge and the mood board is so cute! You made a beautiful card with the perfect paper and your white bows help the rings stand out more from the paper. I still have my very first Spellbinders dies and a lot of really old paper. This G45 is so gorgeous I'd have a hard time cutting it!

Aren't you a lucky girl to still have some of this wonderful collection of papers? I just came across some old G45 papers, and all I want to do is admire it! Your card is so festive and I love the gold rings that you made. How clever, and I think the pop of white from the ribbons really draws attention to them. Thank you for playing along in our It's the Holidays challenge at The Funkie Junkie Boutique blog!
ReplyDeleteThis is just beautiful. I love the vintage patterned papers and traditional Christmas colors. And the way you have presented the golden rings is just fabulous!!! Great take on the challenge.
