it's kristina-time!



Yes, that's right - another Kristina color challenge, #15 to be exact. When I first saw the colors (chocolate chip, close to cocoa, really rust, certainly celery, and whisper white) I was a bit nervous because of the autumn theme, but I LOVE how they ended up looking together. See, another reason I love these challenges. I found all the paper in a box that was under my desk that I had completely forgotten about - Berry Bliss and the other is the pack that looks like Fall Flowers from the last catalog, but it was from a mini. Can't remember the name, naturally. Anyway, they match the challenge, so I jumped on the chance to use them.

Thanks for stopping by today! See you back soon.



Details -
paper: chocolate chip, whisper white (inside lining) cardstock, berry bliss, fall flowers (earlier version) dsp
ink: chocolate chip
stamps: short & sweet
accessories: really rust stitched grosgrain ribbon, paper piercer & template, corner rounder
