DCM: - December Birthstone Turquoise

Here's this week's dare from the Daring Cardmakers team: -

"If cold December gave you birth

The month of snow and ice and mirth

Place on your hand a turquoise blue

Success will bless whate'er you do."

This week sees the very last of our monthly birthstone dares - we started this series way back with the very first challenge of January and here we are in December with this month's birthstone, the

Turquoise

 We'd like you to use this gorgeous stone to inspire you this week - you can make any sort of card you like and we're sure you will be creating wonderful things!

Here's the card that I created for this week's dare.  

My start point had to be 'Tempting Turquoise' cardstock.  I then went to the Stampin' Up!® Colour Coach which gave me the colour "Rich Razzleberry" to go with it. Add the Presto Patterns Designer Series Paper and the "Cottage Garden stamp set" along with the "Afterthoughts" hostess stamp set and this design was the result.
