My mom asked me to make some Christmas cards for her, so I started on a couple today. This is for today's color challenge as well, that I've missed playing for several weeks!
Colors are Bermuda Bay, Old Olive and Pretty in Pink, so where is the pink you ask? Well, I did sponge the sky in pretty in pink to give it a soft effect...it really is there!
The pinecones have been given a coat of Crystal Effects and then Dazzling Diamonds. I needed the cards to be flat ones that are suitable for mailing, even some to Germany, so I hope these will fit the bill.
Thanks for looking!

These are great! I never would have thought "Christmas" with this color challenge, but it works! I especially like the mistletoe on the BG and the depth you got with the pine boughs.

I love seeing this set used with these colors. I would have never thought to make that color of pinecone, but man, that is so awesome.
