Tuesday Trigger: Black & White With the Possibility of Green

This week's Tuesday Trigger comes from my dear friend, Linda Beeson. Check it:


What I love about this trigger, especially for this time of year where we're straddling Christmas and plunging into the new year, is that you could use the color scheme for a holiday card, or not. :)

I also think that Linda has a b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l bathroom! :)

Here's what Linda had to say about her inspiration:

This is a photo from one of our bathrooms. I so love the green of the vase against the black/white of the picture that is on the opposite wall and here it is reflected in the mirror. My husband created the little duck from cement to match the bathroom counter he created from cement. I love that addition of those shades of gray with the black/white/green.

And here's her amazing project:


More from Linda:

I could see that stamping these Papertrey Ink outline flowers in black on white cardstock with a touch of green would work from my inspiration piece. I added gray self adhesive pearls to add the gray into my card.

I can't wait to see where this inspiration takes you, friends! Link up your projects below and have some pre- or post-Christmas fun!

Here are the Trigger Targets from last week's Tuesday Trigger brought to us by Nina Brackett:

Abby, Jennie Harper, Karola Witczak, Eva Dobilas, Ryann Salamon, and Krysten Ng!

Thanks to everyone who played!

I'll be back tomorrow with the winners of the All Creatures Great & Small Challenge, so be sure and drop on by!

Here's to crossing as many things as possible off your list today,
