I chose non traditonal Christmas colors for my project. I know I have never scene aqua holly leaves before with yellow berries but I really liked how this turned out. The images sere colored with reinkers and a brush. Check out my paper floral spray and paper floral wreath on the right side of my blog home page if you would like to see how pics of how I create my sprays. http://kittiekraft.typepad.com/kittiekraft/

What a precious nativity scene!! I like that you kept your card on the simple side with the colors. I agree that it lets you see the focal image better. It's a very sweet card.

I LOVE the holly and berries in the blue!! I'm beginning to really like nontraditional colors for Christmas (but HOW can I give up my RED???). This is the loveliest card. Anyone who receives it will treasure it, Kittie. Thanks so much for sharing it!!!
