Sending Love and Light

Hi friends! I hope you're having a great day! If you're looking for a new challenge you'll find another winner at Fusion Card Challenge . You'll love this challenge because there are three ways to play.. you can play along with the sketch, be inspired by the photo, or FUSE them together and play with BOTH!


I'm always first drawn to the inspiration photo. This time I spy a fireplace, diamond patterned rug, Christmas Trees, and a whole lot of grey. If you know me.. I just can't make a card without colors.. especially around the holidays.. so I'm twisting this one in a whole different direction. Maybe the photo isn't inspiring you either? That's ok.. you can still play along with the sketch. If you're really feeling clever you can fuse them both together.
Since the inspiration photo was what I would call "monochromatic" meaning just one color I tried to do the same working in shades of reds and adding greens for foliage (just like the inspiration photo).
I started with a background of ombre Distress Oxide..Kitsch Flamingo, Picked Raspberry, Barn Door and Festive Berries. The inky panel is topped with a Lattice Background panel die. Do you see the connection to the photo? YES! Diamonds!

I topped the panel with a pretty Winter Wreath that was colored with Copic Markers. I added a Poinsettia Corner floral to the bottom right of the wreath and tucked a cute little lantern from the Pretty Pink Posh Christmas Candles set inside the wreath.
Now it's your turn! I can't wait to see how you interpret the inspiration photo OR the sketch. Maybe you need a little more inspiration? Check out designs from the rest of the team. Just click on their names below to jump to their blogs.


I hope I see you at Fusion Card Challenge! It's a great place to play and make new friends! I'm always inspired by the team as well as the linked up designs!
