Glenda's Random Amusing Challenge #100 is to use red on your card or project. That's it! Use as much or as little as you like. Incorporate it by using paper, ink, ribbon, embellishments, whatever you want!
The Stamp Simply Ribbon store just received all the newest Kaisercraft paper pads in stock and after seeing the amazing After Five pad I was TOTALLY inspired to make this wedding card. This card is different from what I usually make. I am more inclined to use a premade embellishment rather than making one of my own -uhhhh... can you say PRIMA?!?. But I saw this simple tutorial on Kim's blog yesterday and really wanted to try it myself.
I made my flower using a couple sizes of Blossom Nestabilities and a Circle. Before I did anything, I inked the edges up with Lipstick Red copic marker. The paper pad also has some shiny silver patterns in it and I used them to make the double scalloped layers and a tiny piece on the sentiment tag.
Soooooo, be sure check out all the fabulous stampers who are playing along today! They all will dazzle you with their red creations. Everyone who plays along in the challenge will be eligible to win a fabulous prize (pictured on Glenda's Blog)! If you play along, please link up your entry on Glenda's blog. If you upload to an online gallery, please use the keyword GRAC100. You have until midnight Pacific Time on January 23rd to play along AND you can play along as many times as you like. The winner will be randomly chosen and announced on January 24th.
