Hi Everyone!
Today I'm thrilled to participate in a blog hop for the Amber Ink Torch Bearers past and present. Who are the TB's? (Wow, that sounds like a disease instead of the honor that it is...lol!) They are the creatively named Design Team members for Amber Ink, and since I was the inaugural purple Torch Bearer, I'm privileged to be able to participate. Amber Ink is a craft mafia of the best sort...family for life!
You should have arrived from Shannan's blog, but if you didn't, you will want to begin and end at the Amber Inklings blog. That's the place to start and get all the details...Rumor has it there will be prizes :)
Now our theme for the hop is a 7 course dinner for 2. We can only use 2 colors on our card (not counting neutrals) and 7 other things...
Here is the invite I made for my Holiday Shindig this year. I used the super fab Hostess with the Mostess set.
My 2 colors are blue and brown.
My 7 things are:
1 piece of patterned paper, 1 ribbon, 1 snowflake embelli, 3 different foods, and 1 sentiment.
You don't always have to color everything when it comes to an outline stamp...A little color in the right spot can be the wow factor. Especially when making multiple invites ;)
See?
Gosh I love this girl! Speaking of lovin' the girlz, your next stop on the hop is Melissa. Make sure you stop and see what she has cooked up for you.
Don't forget to add a dash of love here and there along the way...Remember there are prizes being given out! Where? On which blog? You never know!
In case you are totally lost, here is the entire list ;)

Karin, I LOVE how you used the hostess in this card! What a fabulous idea!! I especially love the icing on the cake and the snowflake gem.
omgosh! Karin, you are brilliant with only using the color on the cake! Wish I had thought of that!
Gorgeous work!!!
EEK, I love this card!!! How creative!
My mind just blew out of the side of my head!
How do you even come up with this? It is such a period piece done in such a contemporary way from the papers, the images, the bling...like watching a charming classic!
Are we ever glad you joined the family, you craft gansta you!
GENIUS! I love the way you've highlighted the color just on the cake and the awesome bling!
Ohhhh, you are just sooo creative! Fab use of all the images. I really wanted to use that image, but knew I would exceed the color limit :>)
You, my sweet, are the queen of understated glam! I love this, so.
Gorgeous card Karin, the perfect hostess!! Sorry I had to miss out on this one:(
