It's all the rage this year... PLAID!


Hi everyone!  I'm posting my challenge from a few weeks ago... as they say, better late than never!  My challenge was to use plaid in your project.  Plaid is all the rage this year and I used plaid on my tags for Party-er Rosanne's annual tag swap.

Here are my tags...

I'm also loving the old fashioned truck/car theme that is all around this year too!  Link up your Plaid project below... and take a look at what the other Party-ers have come up with!

Poinsettias or Christmas Florals!


It's Sharon and this week I want to see Christmas florals! I love poinsettias (and full disclosure I rarely have luck keeping a real one alive for long!) so I was really excited about two new(ish) things in my stash to play with.

First up is a Clearly Besotted stamp set. I embossed a poinsettia on vellum. Love how that turned out! And gold with a kraft card base just makes me happy! The sentiment is from my go-to PTI set by the lovely Maile Belles. I channeled my "inner Dee" and splatted on a bit of gold mist. :)


 





Second up uses my new Tim Holtz poinsettia stencil. I tinted some paste with a variety of distress inks. Love how the final result perfectly matched PTI's new pink Lovely Lady! I threw lots of glitter on the paste before it dried. 


 

   
I can't wait to see what kind of Christmasy floral goodness the other Party-Ers create this week!
