Another Baroque Pomegranate card

I feel like such a lemming. I got this set (Baroque Motifs) because of all the beautiful stuff I've seen. Just breathtaking. But it's so not me. I know! Of course, you know that... you've spent the past 2 1/2 months looking at my A Muse stuff. That's more like me.

But yet, this set and those colors have a hold of me. Maybe it's that they speak to the desire to make elegant looking stuff part of me. It's the middle of July and already the back to school stuff is out. Today, I got my holiday mini in the mail. So, maybe my mind is already on to the Fall and the holidays as far as colors and themes go. Isn't it funny how it can be 95 degrees outside, wearing shorts, drinking ice cold (I would say sippin' Ice Tea but bleck, don't like that stuff) Diet Coke weather and everyone's gearing up for the holidays? I guess we all are a season ahead.

Last night, I held my first ever new catalog open house come buy some retired sets workshop at my house. I invited everyone to bring their retired sets and try to get rid of them and get some good deals on others. For the new catalog part, we made one card using yes, the Baroque Motifs set. The colors were similar to the previous card I posted over the weekend but still has a different feel to the card. I think.

Stamps: Baroque Motifs
Cardstock: Purely Pomegranate, River Rock, Always Artichoke, Gold
Ink: Purely Pomegranate, River Rock, Versamark
Accessories: Gold embossing powder, heat gun, dimensionals

I couldn't bring myself to put a sentiment on it. The only one that spoke to me was Merry Christmas and it's JUST TOO EARLY for that :).

I *love* your card. The Baroque Motifs set is on my next SU order next week. I enjoyed looking at all of your cards.
