Wahoo me! I’ve done a challenge card 🙂 Been wanting to get one done for ages! This one is for the fab folks over at Colour Create Challenge who have a pink, black and white theme (with some optional polka dots thrown in for good measure) this week based on the purse below.
I’ve gone heavy on the black, which is a new one on me as I don’t really use lots of black. The background paper is from DCWV Glamour pack and I’ve used embossed Core-dinations black and pink card with some sanding. The image is from a Wendie Rhodes stamp set and I’ve used Versamark with chalks to colour it.
The fabulous wired organza ribbon is from the fantastic candy I was lucky enough to win from Tara and the girls – thank you 🙂
Materials:
Stamps – Wendie Rhodes
Ink – VersaMark
Colouring – Chalks
Papers – DCWV
Usual Suspects – Paper trimmer; silicone glue; double-sided tape
Other – Ribbon; Cuttlebug; embossing folder; core-dination card; nestibilities

Hi Kim, love this card – the colours are fabulous. I especially like your article in this months Papercraft Essentials Magazine. The black and yellow colours look brilliant together – I am having a dig in my stash to find some like colours – I think its going to be my new favourite colour match. Brilliant work – keep it up
Oh Kim your card is stunning, I love the big bow too!

Hi Kim,
Beautiful things you make!
I wanted to ask you a question: What (how) did you do to get the post of the Candy on top of the page and have it NOT CHANGE? I hope you understand my question, cause I know what I mean to ask but don’t quite know if I myself understand what I’m asking …haha (happens sometimes).
I have a Swap going on and think it would be a good idea to have it at the beginning (like you have your candy) so that everyone can see it “just when they enter my blog”…
Thank you.
Just stunning and elegant! Luv it!
Great card Kim!! I haven’t been neglecting you blog posts. I have just been really busy. I wanted to let you know that I left you a little something on my blog. http://www.papertherapy-wendy.blogspot.com
Have a super day and I you really deserve all the super award and toots you get!!
Me too, I don’t use black a lot, but I like your card, specially the paper with chalks, amazing.
