Merry Bethlehem (& A Project Life Announcement!)

Uh oh, another color challenge from this week's Merry Monday #104 - to use slate, kraft and white or cream!  In Stampin' Up!'s world, that translates to Smoky Slate (yum!), Crumb Cake (double-yum!) and either Whisper White or Very Vanilla.  Gorgeous!  After browsing what stamp sets I want to use, I also decided to pair this up with this week's Retro Sketch #110 - the shapes sort of suggest these lines to me...
Since we all know what a freak for layers I am, too, I also decided to sneak in a panel of Basic Gray to set off the card front.  While the finished card looks a bit subdued, I am thrilled with the end result - perfect and reverent - even the inside.
And before you say anything, NO, I wasn't trying to show snow in the desert - I was hoping it might come off as star-like, lol...
Come To Bethlehem (retired) stamp set; Whisper White, Basic Gray, Smoky Slate & Crumb Cake CS & Inks; Versamark; Whisper White Embossing Powder; Decorative Dots & Snow Burst Embossing Folders; Stampin' Chalk Marker.

I am so so so excited to let you know we've partnered with the amazing Becky Higgins to bring you the real deal-authentic Project Life products, now in exclusive Stampin' Up! colors and designs. If you've somehow missed the Project Life craze and are wondering what it's all about, we'll fill you in: it's a super simple, totally affordable way to get your photos into albums: you just slip your photos into Photo Pocket Pages and add designed cards. It's a back-to-basics approach to documenting your life. In a nutshell, it's all about spending more time making memories and less time scrapbooking them.
I'll be able to preorder a limited selection of Project Life products starting April 21, so I should start having some samples for you to look at shortly after that. You'll be able to order that same selection of products starting May 1. And with the launch of our new annual catalog on June 2, you'll be able to buy from our complete line of Project Life products!
Watch a video with a few more details here, and an intro by Shelli and Becky Higgens herself!
