SU Sky is the Limit

For today’s Inspiration Challenge (IC) on Splitcoaststampers, I chose to use the SU Sky is the Limit stamp set to create my card.  This Sale-a-bration stamp set is available until February 15. As for the Inspiration Challenge, the hostess selected a fantastic web page of 100 brilliant color combinations from which to choose for making a card.  This page is a great reference for future color combinations projects if you are looking for inspiration for making cards.

I chose #70, Arctic Sunrise, as my guide for making my card.  This is the picture of #70:

I love the color choices for #70, and I love the scene that reflects the colors. I, therefore, decided to try and recreate the scene using similar colors. I tried to match the colors with Stampin’ Up! ink as closely as I could, and I added a small amount of yellow. This is the card I created.

After creating the scene, which has an iceberg on the left, I stamped the image and sentiment.  I made the card for my son-in-law who is soaring high in his career. I’m very proud of him!!

How did I do with my creation using the #70 Arctic Sunrise as my guide?
