I haven’t felt too creative here lately…..but I did want to try to do a Christmas card this week. When I saw the color challenge at SCS, the cool colors of Concord Crush, Bashful Blue and Pear Pizzazz seemed to be perfect for a wintery card, and although I am not thrilled with the outcome, it will be a good addition for my stash.
Of all the new In Colors, this purple shade is not one of my favorites, but I have to admit that I do like it combined with these other hues. I glittered my snowflake with DD; added some stamped white snowflakes to the PP panel and embossed the Bashful Blue DP panel. I forgot I had these doilies in my stash, and they seemed to follow the lacy pattern of the snowflake as well. The sentiment is from a retired SU set called Tiny Talk. The sketch is from Mojo Monday #181:
