Pink & Brown New Year's


My first New Year's card so far! I had the pink and brown scraps from yesterday's card all over my desk, so I figured, why not? The sketch is from the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge, MMSC24. The flowers are from Hot off the Press, blog candy, from my friend Linda Payne, check out her creative BLOG. My New Year theme is from Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenges, SSCC19. Our hostess, Lisa, chose:

Psalm 25:4-5 "Show me your ways, O Lord, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior and my hope is in you all day long."

My challenge is to create a New Year's card or project.
As we begin the new year, let all of our resolutions include asking God to teach us and lead us on the path He has laid for us.

Pretty cool, huh?

Supplies
card stock: brushed gold, pink pirouette, chocolate chip (SU)
dp: close to cocoa prints and patterns (SU)
ink: chocolate chip (SU)
stamp sets: a brand new year (SU)
other: flowers-(hot off the press), icicles stickles-(local craft store), self adhesive rhinestones-(LCS)

Wow, I love this sentiment. It is the perfect thing for me to read just before I go to bed tonight and prepare for my day tomorrow. As a matter of fact, I am writing this in my portfolio right now so I will have it with me tomorrow. I can't tell you how beautiful I thing your card is. You clean lines lend itself to understated elegance and regal prominence!!! Thanks so much for playing along with Midnight Madness. Wishing you and yours a very Happy, Healthy, and Prosperous New Year.

A great challenge card and what a perfect way to start a new year -- using scraps (don't we all have so many of them.)

I am in a brown phase right now and this is lovely! I am so glad that you are able to play along with us this week. I've missed seeing your work. (I have a new computer so I can get around much faster and start catching up.)
