Barb started a new group on SCS this year. It's called Challenge Your Stash. CYS group members are to use stuff they already have to create a card/project based on the theme the month's hostess selects. We alternate hostesses, so everyone will get a chance to choose a theme. It's going to be a lot of fun to see what each person does with her own stuff and a unique theme on the 28th of each month.
This month, to kick things off, Barb is the hostess. She selected a color challenge - Black, White and Silver.
What do you think of when you think of silver? Of course, I think of Hershey's chocolate kisses. ;)
Stampin' UP! For the Love of Chocolate (2002)
I used silver embossing powder on the kiss and fussy cut it, layering it on top of the one stamped in black ink. I did that because I didn't want the little strip of paper sticking out of the kiss to be silver and I couldn't figure out any other way to do it.
On the inside of the card, I stamped (black ink) another chocolate kiss...
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

That silver embossed kiss is absolute perfection on this wonderful design, Jeanette!
ReplyDeleteI hardly ever use just black white and silver except in graduation cards but this is lovely.
