Sometimes the most surprising color combinations actually work quite well together! For example, I would most likely never have put Terracotta Tile together with Seaside Spray, but Stampin’ Up! did. And look how pretty they are together in Woven Threads DSP! Paired with Woven Heirlooms Stamp Set and the new…

I have accumulated quite a collection of Glimmer (aka glitter) Papers over the past years, but other than at Christmas time, I rarely use them. Then the Festive Friday Design Team came out with a challenge using Glimmer Paper this week… Game On! I have no idea what prompted me…
