I am still partying *LOL* ... I was looking at all your beautiful creations and decided to continue and make a second post. First time I looked at challenge no 3 - color inspiration, I thought - no, not me! But this is where a real challenge starts, right?? ... So I sat down, went trough my stamp pads and found I have the right colors (you know that hoarding syndrome?) ... then I went into my stamp sets and found *sight* tooooo many, choice is toooooo difficult! I had hard time to concentrate on one set and not to jump from idea to idea - finishing nothing at the end!
At last I decided for the Asian garden and additions, because I felt the lanterns can easily take a color mix. While stamping and messing around, I needed the bird (cut out on a 3D pad) to cover an unwanted spot and needed a quote, that is not two lines ... then decided there is too much emty space on the right side, so looked out for some Rhinestone sparkle (Asian cards can have that, right?).
At the end I am pleased, mainly because I stamped more or less the whole day, something I haven't done for ages and it felt good.
Thanks to Claire and her team for the big effort of all those inspirations - love the diversity, everybody can find something there.
With the last day light I took my photos and will enjoy my evening now - nighty night everybody!

Hallo Antje
Toll, dass Du die Farbkombination auch noch geschafft hast, das war nämlich wirklich eine Herausforderung.
Die Lampions in diesen Farben gefallen mir sehr gut, den aufgesetzten Vogel finde ich auch klasse, ebenso den verschieden farbig gestempelten Gruss sowie die Glitzersteinchen.
Schönen Abend und liebe Grüsse
Carola
Ok, this is gorgeous!!!!
Terrific card! Love the balance and colours!
I am not familiar with that stamp set, but you made it look wonderful! Perfect coloring, placement, and yes rhinestones. Reading your bio, can't believe people so far apart can love the same hobby! We all speak 'stamp', don't we?
I love your colorful lanterns Antje! The popped up bird and repeated 'hello' look wonderful on this!
Antje, die Karte ist wundervoll. Die Farben passen super zusammen !
Die Karte ist wunderschön.
wunderschöne Designs sind hier wieder entstanden Antje! Besonders angetan hat es mit die blaue Weihnachtskarte mit der Karawana!

I am too familiar with that feeling where your mind just hops from one idea to another and you can't seem to get anything started.
So glad you finally settled on this set as I have it too and I love what you've done with the lanterns - skillfully masked and stamped and that repeated sentiment across the top is perfect.
Antje, this is a stunning card, I love the composition, you have created something very stylish here and I'd love to case this one. hugs to you for playing along and best of luck in the challenges!
Definitely think you chose the right set for the colour challenge Antje - the lanterns look wonderful stamped in those colours!
Gorgeous and perfect use of the lanterns!!
