It's an exciting time over at CR84FN! We have brand new colors for our challenge this week, but first, some really awesome news!!!

 On to this weeks CR84FN color challenge. These colors are GORGEOUS! I love purple!!!

I had a few ideas for this palette; however, I must admit I had a bit more trouble than I bargained when trying to put together a card...I'll blame it on being tired :) But I seriously do love these colors. Talk about a fabulous, non-traditional color scheme!


The snowflakes are heat embossed in gold, then I used Concord Grape distress ink to make them stand out.

Elegance is the theme with this week's CR84FN colours! 

They just exude class and style. 





I went for a simple design that I thought was elegant in it's own way. I die cut three colours of card stock using an undulating die from Papertrey Ink (In the Meadow). I then pieced the die cuts together and embossed the lot. I thought about adding a few more embellishments but then decided I liked it the way it was :)

Hope you'll join in on the fun! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Welcome back for another beautiful colour palette from CR84FN!


Such a soft and gorgeous collection of colours. 


Although I first thought these colours would make a fabulous non-traditional Christmas palette, all I could think about was cupcakes :) So I went with it.

Make sure to swing by the CR84FN blog for more fabulous DT inspiration!

CR84FN #61 Week 2

| Published 8.26.2012



It's week 2 of CR84FN #61! And lo and behold, I actually had time to make a second card! I actually made it several days ago…I hope I can continue to get back into my good ol' craft room on a regular basis. The place has been a bit of a wasteland as of late.


I was really inspired by this color palette to play with watercolors. So I dug out my watercolor paper (this stuff is the best for working wit watercolors, seriously) and played a bit.


I started by using water based inks (Antique Linen Distress Ink and PTI's Hawaiian Shores), wet a brush and began brushing the ink on the paper. Then I stamped a few flower silhouettes in tan and a few in brown for some depth. Pretty simple but I really like how this turned out. It just makes me want to play with watercolors even more!

Make sure to swing by CR84FN and see what the AMAZING DT has whipped up!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Check out the newest colors from CR84FN!!! 


I just adore these colors! The bright pink is sooo pretty - it's become one of my favorite colors. I used to be a earth-tone kinda gal (and still am) but pink has begun to dominate my color palette. 


For my card, I chose some graphic stripes. Then I used this beautiful daisy (made with dies from Papertrey Ink) to soften the stripes. 

Hope you'll swing by the CR84FN blog to check out the fantastic samples by the talented DT!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
