Amazing Grace

Well, there is nothing like waiting until nearly the very last minute!  I'm not usually a procrastinator and I've known for a couple of weeks that I wanted to enter the challenge over at the Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog and what do I do, wait until the day of with only hours to go to get the project done and posted.  Whew!  I've worked all the morning long to get it done!  Okay, maybe not that long, but I do love the way the card turned out.  Clean, simple and blue.  I do so love my blue!

The challenge was to use a blue color palette and some of your hoarded stuff.  I have quite a bit of that.  The grosgrain ribbon, the patterned paper and the shimmer mist are all from my stash.  I don't remember the name of the patterned paper as this is the last sheet I had.  The ribbon is almost gone and I know I will cry when that is so.  Sigh... all good things come to an end, eventually!


Stamp Set:  Amazing Grace (Our Daily Bread); Inks:  Night of Navy (Stampin' Up!), Antique Linen Distress Ink and Vintage Photo Distress Ink (Tim Holtz); Card Stock:  Night of Navy, Soft Sky and Wild Wasabi (Stampin' Up!), Patterned Paper; Accessories & Tools:  Top Note Die, 5/8" Night of Navy Grosgrain Ribbon - retired, Floral Fusion Sizzlits, Itty Bitty Punch Pack Flower, Bird Builder Punch and Stampin' Dimensionals (Stampin' Up!), Pearl Glimmer Mist (Tattered Mist)

You can find the color palette and the details of the challenge HERE on the Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog.  Gorgeous, right?  It's blue!


Thanks for stopping in at the Coffee Pot Stamping Cafe,

Marsha
