Happy New Year

Hello Colorful Options Friends, are you ready for our first challenge in the New Year?
We have a pretty mood board for inspiration but if not a fan you are
always welcome to use rainbow colors!


I was totally inspired by the center snowflake picture as living in Michigan
I know that scene all too well!!  Plus, the fact it gave me an opportunity to pull 
out an older and much neglected snowflake cover plate die from Impression Obsession.
I for one certainly miss that company, it seems we lost a lot of our great
card making suppliers in 2025, sad for us all!
I die cut my panel from a shimmery white card stock, IRL if has a pretty 'glow'
that of course isn't captured in the photo.  I popped the panel up then added a
sentiment stamped and die cut from The Ton Easy Expressions Christmas.


We hope you will join us at Colorful Options for our challenge,
what else do you have to do in January??

Entering the following challenges:
Little Red Wagon .... Use Force (my bigshot)
Just Us Girls ....Die Week~Cover Plate

Diane... love that you are the first one in the JUGS gallery in 2026. Your card is gorgeous and perfect for the cold across the US. We were at freezing this morning in South Florida...first time in 25 years. Happy New Year and thanks for playing with Just Us Girls.

I love my shimmer white cardstock. It's perfect for Christmas cards and something gorgeously wintry like this. I love my Impression Obsession die and stamps. We lost a good one there, along with too many others.

I really like the depth in your card, with that beautiful background and snowflakes die over it. Blessings!
