Merry & Bright: Color Coordinates with Shari Carroll
Welcome to the blog everyone!! It’s Shari here with another Color Coordinates for you. This was a super fun combination to throw in the pink and blue along with traditional Christmas colors. I think it’s a fresh look for the Holidays.

I played around with the ClarityStamp Stencil Brushes to color the Tim Holtz Retro Ornament dies. I have to say… I felt like these were an exceptional way of coloring paper to achieve a blend from white to dark.

I stamped the Holiday Background onto a panel of Fog cardstock with Simon Says Stamp white ink which gave me just a hint of light toned messages and a subtle setting for the brightly colored ornaments.

I filmed the process of how this card was made which you can view below or on our YouTube channel HERE.

Hi readers! Happy Wednesday! Welcome to Work It Wednesday for November 2016!

On the last Wednesday of every month (or towards the end of the month ;)), we want to see what you’re creating! The Simon Says Stamp community is so very talented, and we want to see more of your cards and projects every month.

Each month we’ll pick a few random participants to win a Simon Says Stamp grab bag!
