Moxie Fab "The Gray is the new Black Challenge"

I so very much needed something to get my stamping/crafting mojo going, and when I landed over on the Moxie Fab World, and saw this challenge, I knew that this was exactly what I needed.
Gray has actually been my thing lately, those of you who received a Christmas card from me are aware of this. (I don't think I ever posted the card I sent out.) I also had a brief chance in December to make a couple of snowflake cards which incorporated gray. If you would like to see those, you can find them here and here.

So since this challenge so inspired me to 'get my craft on' once again, I just couldn't stop with one card. So here are the cards I have been working on today.


I did make one more card, but couldn't locate it in my messy craft area. I also have a few more ideas in my brain, so perhaps I'll post a few more 'Gray' cards here in the near future!!!
Thanks for stopping by and have a beautiful day!

What a parade of gray! They are so nice. I especially love the gray and melon colors. They are gorgeous. Your satin (?) ribbon is beautiful. Good luck!
