Unicorn Magic

We had so much fun creating cards with the fun Unicorn Holiday color palette, and we're glad to see that you did, too! Every single entry is most definitely worth a look, so we recommend scrolling back to the original post and checking out the FAB Readers' Gallery. In the meantime, here are three cards that especially caught our eye this time: 

Meghan of Made by Meghan K

...used all of the colors, not to mention an amazing selection of adorable patterns; with an extra award for terrific coloring skills!

Cindy Major aka @encrepapierciseaux on Instagram

...not only used all the colors from the board in this super-detailed nutcracker diecut, she also managed to combine several different challenges very impressively!

Charmaine Stack of Tweedcurtain Productions

...creatively blended three of the colors to make the sky behind her handsome snowpeople look like the Aurora Borealis; bonus points for an excellent take on the postage craze!

Many thanks to all who played along, we hope you loved this fun palette as much as we did. We'll be back with a brand new prompt at Midnight... when we'll let the games begin! ;)

Unicorn Colors Christmas

This week we're still asking you to create a holiday card using at least three of the colors from our Unicorn Holiday graphic. You can also be inspired by the image, but it's not required!  Neutrals (brown, black, white, kraft) are also allowed. 

Here's what we made this week:

Lauren's Other Card

Lauren says, "I couldn't decide between recreating Stephanie's amazing card from last week or using my new Simon Hurley create Tangled Lights Layering Stencil Set; so I did a bit of both! I used Simon's Inks for the lights; and a set of nested dies to make the four graduated circles from Stephanie's design. I considered a yeti... or a narwhal... even Hello Kitty; but in the end I chose the snow person in Simon's North Pole Sentiments set from Spellbinders, and had fun dressing him up using scraps from the same colors of cardstock that make up the circles."

Stephanie's Other Card

Stephanie says, "I cut cardstock from four of the colors into 3/4" strips for my angled card base.  I used the fifth color for Santa's hat and the stamping ink.  I'm also linking-up my card up at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers X is for Xmas in July, since I believe Simon Says Stamp Santa Man dies paired with sentiments from CZ Design's Sassy Christmas are the perfect snarky fun."

Unicorn Holiday

This fortnight we're asking you to create a card that is made using at least three of the colors from this fun Unicorn Christmas color palette from Artsy Fartsy Life (your card does not have to be inspired by the image, but certainly can be as long as it includes at least three of the five colors) … additional neutrals are allowed.

Here's how we used those colors this week.

Stephanie's Card

Stephanie says, "I started by using the darkest color to accessorize my adorable little Lawn Fawn Winter Yeti adding a Santa Hat from Lawn Fawn Hats Off to You (that I've embarassingly had FOR-ever and never used).  I embossed the Lawn Fawn Stitched Snowflake Backdrop on the other four colors cutting out circles for my background.  I finished with an outline Happy Holidays sentiment from Lawn Fawn Offset Sayings. I'm also linking-up this cutie at the Lawn Fawnatics Christmas in July Challenge."

Lauren's Card

Lauren says, "I was excited to find this ancient piece of SEI "Twitterpated" striped paper which had all of the colors in the palette! Then I pulled out some pale green paper to coordinate and grabbed some diecuts and stickers from the serendipitously matching Simple Stories' Snow Pine Lodge collection. Finally I added Eyelet Outlet Poinsettia and Holly Brads for a little extra texture. Et voila!"
