The Card Concept #81 {Rich Holiday}

Welcome to The Card Concept!  Every two weeks we post our inspiration photo challenge and hope that you will join in with us and create a card for our challenge gallery.  

Please feel free to use any of the styles we have defined or create your own with a combination of styles.  We want you to have fun with our inspiration!




Our design team members will also be selecting a style (or combination of styles) and will explain how they were inspired by the challenge.  So come and join us!  We'd love you to try your hand at a brand new style of card making or feel free to work in your comfort zone.  It is totally up to you!

The styles are explained HERE.

Now for the design team and their inspiration: 



Ruth Andrews 
Ruth's Inspiration: The green and reds and the 
Christmas table gave me a push to create some 
quick Clean and Simple cards perfect for mailing.

Becca's Inspiration: Candles and poinsettias and 
elegance- oh my! Loved this classy image. I really 
wanted to let my candles shine, so I went with a 
Clean and Layered design. 

Vicki Finger
Vicki's Inspiration:I love all the Red and Gold and 
wanted a Classy and Elegant design with 
a lot of white space which happens to be 
red this time around!    

Julie Gearinger
Julie's Inspiration- I was inspired by the elegant 
table setting with all of the beautiful red 
poinsettias to create my Classy and Elegant/
Mixed Media card. 

Kim Heggins
Kim's Inspiration: My inspiration came from the 
gorgeous poinsettia's and the gold lights 
to created a Clean and Simple but elegant card.

Michele K. Henderson

Michele's Inspiration: I love the lush poinsettias and 
the bright candles and featured them in my 
Clean and Simple/Classy and Elegant card.

Nancy Penir
Nancy's Inspiration: The rich red poinsettias inspired 
this Classy and Elegant card.

Maureen Plut
Maureen's Inspiration: The colours and poinsettias 
inspired this Clean and Layered card.

Susan Powell
Susan's Inspiration: I was inspired by the poinsettias 
and the colors to make this Clean and Graphic card.

Angel Rivera
Angel's Inspiration: The POP of red and the gold 
flicker from the candles and Christmas lights inspired 
my Clean and Layered/Classy and Elegant card.

Mackie Robertson
Mackie's Inspiration: The colors and poinsettias 
inspired my Mixed Media style card.
