F4A252 - "Reversi" - 12/19/14

I'm pretty sure that we have ALL been making Christmas-y kinds of cards for WEEKS now ... so all of our favorite Christmas-y cardstock, patterned paper, ribbons and embellishments are littering our crafty spaces, right??

The challenge THIS week is to use up some of those goodies and make a NOT-Christmas-y card. Silvers and blues, reds and golds, reds and greens and browns ... takes some colors that would "traditionally" be used on a Christmas/holiday card and make a card that is anything BUT Christmas, got it??? Go get 'em!!

Here is my sample:

Big Stars and Wishes

I used up some of my left-over (from last year, I think -- or maybe the year before that) Wassail DP on my card.

Thank You Feathers

I've been so focused on color challenges..so I decided to take a break and peek in here today. Too bad I uploaded my nephew's birthday card yesterday, because it works for this. I'll link it here, but I will make a card specific for this challenge.

Wendy- your wonderful card- Big Stars and Wishes inspired me- I loved the woodgrain embossed background, the banner, and the button elements- I added a snowman, and a gingerbread girl and holly 3D sticker for my card Eat Something Sweet.

Here's my card for the 'reverse' challenge. It is a thank you card. F4A252 Winter Time Thanks by Dockside - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

Our church has a prayer shawl ministry and we really go through the cards, so... even though this isn't a Christmas card, it is a winter themed card since we are low and needed some "right now" cards!

Wendy ~ So sorry to be late for the challenge. I had camera trouble and still not taking the best pictures. I'm glad there is no deadline.

Here's my non-Christmas birthday card with a snowman.
