Christmas Card using non-Traditional colors

Well, another Saturday is here and we are one week closer to Christmas.

Happy Saturday everyone! Baby It's Cold Outside!.......But it's warm and toasty inside! Just sitting here sipping on coffee, watching Hallmarks holiday weekend preview, and working on challenges. I think I'm all set! Who could ask for anything more?Lol.......

This little card is so cute! I had to share it! The colors are totally not me for Christmas, but like I said I'm trying to get out of my box. Lol

Let it Snow......Let it Snow

Here we have just a base card of ivory with windows of snowflakes. The turquoise card stock behind the snowflakes is on the inside of the card, where you put the sentiment. This is a new Martha Stewart Snowflake punch. You can dardly tell, but there are dark pink gems in the center of each snowflake. Rubber stamped snowflakes, stamped let is snow sentiment and ribbon. There you have it! Simple but very nice.

Bundles of Warm Wishes!

Hello my blogger friends! It is very windy outside and it kinda got me in the mood to do holiday cards. I didn't really want to get into the traditional Christmas colors, so this is what I came up with. Thank goodness for challenges because I need to get out of my little box.

The next three or four cards are not in my color pallet for Christmas. That's good! It's stretching me and that's what this blog is all about.

Maybe in some small way I'm helping some of you also? That's what crafting is all about, sharing with each other.
