Coloring Colorado Craft Company

The Colorado Craft Co. reached out and I couldn't resist saying YES to my first look at their products!  If you are also new to this company, let me introduce you to two examples of their design styles:  Big & Bold  is a collection of images that are destined to be the focal point of any card … here's a look at Birthday Cake which, btw my husband gave two thumbs up... this is exactly the perfect sized piece of cake for him!!   He also thinks ANY reason for cake is acceptable!

 
Yes, I got the message!
 

The next Big & Bold design I fell in love with is Perfume Bouquet perfect for water-coloring.  BTW the sentiments alone had me at the ability to customize the label:

I reached for my Distress inks for water coloring this 5x7" card today!  Rounding the top corners added a little interest to the shape, and a bit of natural twine can't hurt this feminine design!
 

My final card today features one of Colorado Craft Company's Lovely Legs sets … this one, intended for a Get Well was also perfect for this Winter, curl up with a favorite book and box of tissues, and cuppa time of year! 

 CCC allowed me to add a little sentiment
of my own to the inside!
 


I do hope you'll check out all of the fabulous Colorado Craft Co. products in the Ellen Hutson, LLC shop today!!

Hey!  Did you know today is National Hug Day … there IS a SALE for that!!  Just don't forget that CODE!

They couldn't have picked a better designer Michele. Your cards are as fresh as their images are. I am smitten by the third card's design. Fabulous.

WOW! Those bold stamp sets really catch the eye. Cake makes everthing a celebration, btw. So you must be baking today. That watercolored card is a work out are...subtle color with an impressive image. Fabulous. And, my favorite, get well card. Love how you framed the image and added your inimitable style to the sentiment.

Groan, I knew I shouldn't have looked because I knew I was going to be wanting whatever it was you were using Michele! lol I love that huge cake slice, how fun is that?!! I have to agree with hubby in that any reason for cake is acceptable. lol And what a perfect sentiment on this card inside and out! Love it! Totally in love with the perfume bouquet card-so elegant looking, beautifully colored and so girly-everything I love! lol Can't go wrong with flowers and perfume in my own humble opinion. The lovely legs card is awesome! I love the couch, blanket, pj's, tissues and cuppa stamp. Perfect for a get well card. Love it too. Well done showcasing this new to me company! Hugs, Brenda

Any reason for cake and/or ice cream is acceptable in our house! :-)
All three cards are colored beautifully and images look realistic. Thank you for showing the inks you used in the photos!
