I am writing on behalf of Make My Monday Challenge Blog this evening. Their challenge this week is inspired by one of our team members favorite crafting elements; Teal, sequins, and twine.. Oh man, sequins and twine... Umm. I would have never put these two together but wow it worked out beautifully! Here is my card for tonight..
 |
| This card shows all the elements for our challenge this week. Interesting combination that made for a great card! I used the complimentary rust color on the edges of the card to frame the teal ornaments. I also did the same behind the shaker element of the card featuring rusty luster CS. |
I do hope you join us for the challenge this week.. I am looking forward to see what you come with all these bits and pieces in mind.

| You can see the shaker sequins, glitter, and the luster of the CS through the detailed die cut ornament. |
 |
| Cross pollinating two colors on different elements such as these ornaments prove to make for a cohesive design |
ABC Christmas Challenge: U- Unusual Christmas Colors
Well here is a sobering thought... Only two months till Christmas!! Yikes!! However, I am sure we are set ready to go for this season of giving! Not me, no way Ho-say!
My ten year old already knows about Santa but she wants to believe. I guess I should take her lead because Christmas can be magical for those who do and/or want to believe.
There is still plenty of time my friends. Just breathe and lets make a card to calm down.. And for those of you who don't make cards, well.... I'm not sure.. LOL!!
That should be it for me!! I hope you all enjoyed your visit and I would enjoy to hearing your comments. Thank you so much for your visit and I hope you can join me again.
All the best,
Shawna
This is beautiful - I love the colour combo you've used. Great minds think alike on the shaker. My youngest child is 8 and my oldest grandchild is 10...the 10 year old seems to truly still believe , but I get the impression my 8 year old is trying to make me believe he believes so the presents don't get withdrawn!
