Our Twisted Sistahs Challenge for this week was presented by 101Airborne. This is Kathy's very first TSC presentation, and it's a good one! Kathy asked us to make a Christmas card without any traditional Christmas colors. We teased her a lot about different shades of green and so forth. It's been fun on the bus! LOL! Anyway, we were to use at least one embossing folder (I used the Square Lattice EF AND the Merry Embosslit), one punch or die (I used the Merry Details Sizzlit), we needed to have at least three layers AND at least one embellishment. I think I got it all covered. I used Crumb Cake and Whisper White card stocks and Whisper White Satin Ribbon as well. Oh yes, I also used Basic Pearls in the upper right. I was inspired by a fall card in the September issue of CardMaker Magazine. If you'd like to join us for this challenge, please use TSC0805 in your keywords. Thanks for taking a peek!

Hey Cuz,
I am loving this color combo on your pretty Christmas card. The white images look awesome against the kraft and your beautiful bow and tag top it off - wonderful.

Very pretty, CA. I love the colors that you chose. I never would have thought of using those on a Christmas card, but it looks really good. I think I will be using those in the future.
