Yo-Yo-Voila!

Here's my card for this week's SCS Color Challenge. I know I'm casing this from somebody. I think it's my upline, Lindsey! She's way more creative than I am. The gray parts of the chef's outfit are raised with Stampin' Dimensionals.



Recipe:
Stamp Set: Voila
Cardstock: Yo-Yo Yellow, Going Gray, Light Gray (non-SU), Whisper White
Ink: Going Gray
Accessories: Black Brads, Photo Corner Punch, Maize Ribbon, Black and White Gingham Ribbon, Stampin' Dimensionals

SCS Challenges

I combined the color and sketch challenges for this week from Split Coast Stampers. I really like the "Birthday Whimsy" stamp set from the Sale-a-bration catalog. To my club members - this stamp set will be featured at our February meeting !!


I thought the card was a little plain so I tried to dress it up a little by using iridescent embossing over the gifts. Unfortunately, the camera didn't pick that up very well!
