add your favourite 3 colours . . .

(I'm in love with any shade of purple - in fact, I'm re-decorating my studio in these colors)  my co-worker really liked the colors I used for a recent card, so I thought I would make her birthday card in a similar color combo . . .

there was so much fabulous inspiration from papertrey ink's September release, it was difficult to contain my creativity to just ONE snippet of inspiration . . . I actually combined two things I really loved . . .


Papertrey Ink's
"Create Along With Us"
 
first, I loved the striking red and white ribbon with a simple sprig of cedar . . .

and then I fell in love with Lizzie's deep red tone-on-tone buffalo plaid . . .
 
Joy & Peace Wreath Card
 
 
so, here is my combo of the two . . .
(a brand new versamark pad really made the pinecones pop - I love the finished project)
