Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
It's time for a new challenge at Color Hues.
This month Nanc' picked our colors. She chose....
I immediately thought of my Nordic Bird die paired with a new embossing folder.
I die cut the bird from teal cardstock adding a silver wing. The branch he's sitting on
was die cut from Neenah Solar White and lightly brushed with light teal ink that was left
on a blending brush. I added a bit of glitter to the branches too. A little sparkle adds to the fun.
Now let's go and see what my talented friends and our
I hope you'll create a card using Teal and Silver and add it to the gallery at
Challenge ends at 9:00 AM on November 29th.

Ink: Pool Party, Whisper White

You really have put those colors to beautiful use, Bonnie! I love that I'm not the only one giving the bird this year - and that fantastic new embossing folder!

A new embossing folder! I never thought too much about embossing the background of my cards but after see all the embossing that you do I am ready to get into the swing of things. I see you have made a silvered wing Titmouse. Your pine leaves look so cold. Delightful card Bonnie.

Bonnie I love that you went with a bird and your new embossing folder is amazing! Wouldn't it be lovely to see a beautiful bird like this out in the yard! xo
Your teal bird looks very happy perching on the pine branch Bonnie, great use of the colours. :)
You and Marcia were on the same wave length with these colors, Bonnie! Love your silver winged bird and the way the branches sparkle with a hint of teal too. Such a wonderful Christmas card. Have a wonderful day!
I like your handsome bird perched on those frosty pines! Wonderful card, Bonnie!
You have made the most beautiful, unexpected lovely bird! Wow, this packs a lot of punch!

What a tweet teal bird! Fabulous inspiration for this. Awesome colour duo.
Such a majestic bird sitting on the frosty branched, Bonnie. Lovely card with the embossed background.
Beautiful card Bonnie. Your bird is so week done in teal and silver and I love the glittery branch he's sitting on. Love, Loll
Bonnie, I've always love that Nordic bird, and it's so striking sitting of the pine branch with it's lovely silver wing! I just ordered one of the embossing folders you featured here awhile ago, and this one is another winner!
Your bird is beautiful in Teal & Silver and looks great on your embossed background. Such a pretty card.
We were definitely on the same wavelength with using birds on our cards for this challenge Bonnie (Great minds DO think alike!!) and yours is absolutely beautiful my friend! I love your new embossing folder too and of course the glitter for the extra added fun! Lovely, lovely card!! Hugs. :0)
Your teal + silver bird, paired with the pretty embossed background, makes for a lovely card and fabulous inspiration for our challenge. Festive and fabulous.

I LOVE this color combo and you and Marcia have totally sold me on using it with a bird. So very elegant. Your Nordic bird is so pretty sitting on the branch. I love the embossed background, too!
What a sweet Nordic bird with his silver wing and sitting on that lovely pine branch Bonnie! That thick embossed background is lovely behind your scene!
A CAS teal + silver beauty! Your Nordic bird looks so happy, perched on those gorgeous branches!
Gorgeous! I never would have thought to use the teal and silver for a bird but it works perfectly!
<Loving that texture in the EF. Your Nordic bird looks perfectly perched. Pretty card & lovely use of the colors.
The bird looks so pretty in teal with the silver wing and with some patches of teal and glitter on the branches too Bonnie, and the floral EF is a very effective background. The Color Hues colour choice works perfectly with your images. x
Bonnie, that bird is a beauty, and evermore so in teal and silver! Love the glitter on the branches and the wonderful, embossed background. Gorgeous Christmas card!
