Tuesday Trigger - Ready for Red Challenge

     I made this card for the Tuesday Trigger - Ready for Red Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.

     I love the black and white background from the inspiration photo (below). And, that little pop of velvety red is perfect. I stamped my background with a stamp from Paper Inspirations called Floral Flourish. It is one of my favorite stamps of all time. You can use it in so many ways. I matted the front panel with black and added a couple of dark red paper flowers with black ceners.
     If you are inspired by all this, you can answer the challenge too. Check all the details here:  http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2012/10/tuesday-trigger-ready-for-red.html
     Here's the inspiration photo.

The Pot Pourri Challenge

    I made this card for the Get Inspired Pot Pourri Challenge in the Moxie Fab World. First things first. This is the inspiration photo Cath gave us to work with.

And, my take.

    The coffee cup in the inspiration photo drew my attention right away plus I love the colors of black and white together. They make even a simple card look elegant. I used Fiskars Latte Love stamps to create this card. I printed out a small "H" in French Script on my computer onto white paper then cut it to fit within the heart on the stamped image. I backed the images with a deep maroon because I thought the card needed just a touch of color and maroon always looks elegant. I have a friend who will love getting this card.
   And of course, the link in case you want to join us in the challenge.
