Today I am playing along with the latest challenge over at Create With Connie and Mary.
They have a sketch challenge this week and I immediately knew which products I wanted to play with!
I love when it comes together that easily!
Here is their sketch.
All of the products I used today came from the Going Places Collection in the Occasions Catalog (pages 38-39).
I kept it simple with a Basic Black and Very Vanilla color scheme which I drew from my two designer papers.
I tried to keep it relatively "flat" for mailing ( I have someone in mind for this card, grin ) however, I think I large pearl, right in the center of the compass, would really finish this card off perfectly! Or maybe just fill the center with a pool of Crystal Effects... I'll have to wait and see.
What do you think? Pearl? Crystal Effects? Leave it alone?
I'd love to hear your opinions :)
I hope you enjoy today's card and that I have inspired you to try it for yourself! I've posted my printable supply list for you below.
Don't forget, when your order reaches $50, you will earn an exclusive Sale-a-bration item, the Sky Is The Limit stamp set would pair wonderfully with this collection, for FREE!
If you do not currently have a relationship with a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, and would like your own personal copies of the new Occasions Catalog and Sale-a-bration brochure, I would be happy to send them to you. Simply contact me with your mailing address and I will send them on their way!
Happy Stamping!

I think it might look kinda cool with Crystal Effects in the center of the compass. I really like the look of this card in black and white! Thanks for playing along with us at Create with Connie and Mary!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great masculine card - I love the texture added by the embossing and the compass is really eye-catching. I agree with Jenny - Crystal Effects would look really neat in the compass centre, or even an epoxy sticker maybe? Thanks for joining us over at Create With Connie and Mary this week!

I love all of the detail here! So much texture and pattern and your simple color pallet ties it all together. I think it would be fine as is or with Crystal Effects. ;) Thanks for playing along this week at Create with Connie and Mary!
