This is for the weekly colour challenge over at Colour Q; this weeks colours are: lucky limeade, pumpkin pie, daffodil delight, early espresso + white. If you'd like to play go here: http://colourq.blogspot.com/
These were some tough colours for a Christmas card but I found the dsp from Imaginisce in my stash and thought it fit pretty good to help bring the colours together. The base is lucky limeade, then my layer of dsp. The strip of early espresso was embossed with the snowflake EF from SU; and I wrapped it in some lucky limeade ribbon that you can get as part of SAB. The main image is a digi from dilly beans: framed snowman#2. It is colored with copics and SU markers. I added some brownstone glitter from MS to the heart and scarf. It is layered on early espresso and pumpkin pie. The sentiment is from PTI and it's stamped with versamark and heat embossd with white EP.
