September 2019 Color Challenge

September 2, 2019 / Melissa Kerman / 6 Comments
Today's projects were made for the September 2019 Color Challenge and Color Fusers Blog Hop.

Welcome to the Color Fusers Blog Hop and September 2019 Color Challenge!

For this months project, I wanted to create a Christmas card but I wasn’t quite sure I could do it with the colors for the September 2019 Color Challenge. The colors include Mossy Meadow, Night of Navy, Merry Merlot and one of the new 2019 – 2021 In Colors, Rococo Rose. As it turns out the Brightly Gleaming product suite includes two of the four colors so I thought I’d use one of the gorgeous specialty papers as a starting point.

So what I came up with is a bit of a non-traditional color scheme for Christmas but I actually love how it turned out!

How can you go wrong with this stunning paper and these beautiful ornament images?

Today's projects were made for the September 2019 Color Challenge and Color Fusers Blog Hop. They feature the Christmas Gleaming Bundle from the 2019 Holiday Catalog.

I’ve heat embossed the ornaments with Copper embossing powder to coordinate with the stars in the designer paper.

Then I colored in each of the ornaments to provide some interest and dimension to these images. I also used some Wink of Stella at the top of the ornament as well.
