More Eskimo Kisses

Stamps: Papertrey 'Signature Christmas'. Cardstock: Basic Grey 'Eskimo Kisses', Soft Sky, Textured Old Olive, Pretty in Pink. Ink: Rich Razzleberry. Accessories: circle punch, scallop border punch, Rich Razzleberry dotted grosgrain.

Now we finally see why this Basic Grey paper was named 'Eskimo Kisses'! The blues, purplish reds and greens in this DP make this card eligible for this months color combo challenge on the Basic Grey Challenge blog.

Inspiration was courtesy of Sweet Sunday sketch #40; I'm drawn to these layouts that feature lots of spaces for bits of DP. All the pattern, and in such small amounts that I can get past my hoarding instincts!

  1. hehehe - you think you have hoarding issues!!?? :-) I LOVE the circles and lyout of this card!! And you have picked the perfect mix of designer papers on here to make it work beautifully!! This also would work for the current basic grey challenge...use red, green, and blue on a card...and since you used Eskimo Kisses it would count *wink*
