~It's beginning to look a lot like...FUSION!!!~

Friday, December 6, 2013

Hello everyone!  I've got some great news...and I hope you are as excited as I am that one of my favorite challenges is back...FUSION!!! Yippee!!!  A new challenge is up and you've got lots of time to enter...


This one will take us through the rest of the year...along with an open DT call...more excitement!!!  Then the new team and regular challenges will be up and running every two weeks to start off 2014.  Feel free to create for the challenge, or, if you love the challenge as much as I do, you'll want to check the blog for details of applying for the DT...that's a separate process.


Now...I found myself in a bit of a pickle for this challenge, as I had forgotten that I'd loaned my Christmas stamps and cartridges to a friend, thinking I was done with most of my Christmas creating.  Crafty time is on short supply around here, and the Festive Friday blog had wrapped up it's final challenge, so I passed my things along to someone else with a little more time on her hands and a mission to get her cards done.  Went downstairs at the last minute to whip something up for this re-opening challenge and thought,..."Oh...my golly...I don't have much to work with!"  So I did the best I could with what I had (Hero Arts wreath, PTI impression plate and die and a misc. sentiment), and used the photo for my inspiration...


 I just know the new year will settle my schedule down, (It has to...can't keep this pace up for much longer!) and I'll be ready for a fun...new...creative year with FUSION!!!

Be sure to check the rest of the DT's creations for more inspiration!  They are all as excited as I am to be back!  Thanks so much for stopping in, and have a great day!!!

  1. You wouldn't know you didn't feel like you had anything to work with, because it looks so perfect! I like how you offset the wreath - I never remember to do that, and it always looks so cool. This is gorgeous, friend!

  3. Love the tone on tone with the great textures from the embossing and the little pops of red from the gems! That die that the wreath is embossed on is so pretty too, unexpected and so elegant.

  17. Geri, this is beautiful! No one would ever guess that you didn't have a wealth of Christmas stamps on hand! The embossed wreath is beautiful and I love how you've stamped it off center! And those red rhinestones add just the right amount of color!

  18. You do a better job just "whipping something up" than a lot of us with a full shed full of supplies, Geri! This is really breathtaking!! It will be so fun to have Fusion back with its talented group of designers!! Hugs, Darnell
