This is my sample for this weeks color challenge #384. I am your hostess and I chose a Christmas color palette this week.
We are using gumball green, cherry cobbler and very vanilla with a dessert option of Christmas.
I started my card with some new SU dsp – “be of good cheer”. My ribbon is cherry cobbler quilted satin with a pearl snowflake center.
The Christmas tree image is from JustRite Stampers – "O Christmas Tree" set and it coordinates with the Spellbinders Pennants dies.
I stamped my tree in cherry cobbler ink and then stamped again in gumball green. I fussy cut the middle piece in green and popped it up on my tree. Just for a little interest. I added the star as my tree topper. ItÂ’s also a part of this set.
My sentiment is from the Verve set – “winter wonder”.
ThatÂ’s my card for this week. I hope you will play along with us.

Fabulous layout, Mary!! Love the pretty DP in the background. The tree looks beautiful on the scalloped border with the banner in behind. Pretty bow, too! Love the popped up section of green on your tree.

Mary, this is a delightful Christmas card featuring a tree and bg that have fine line details in red/green. The bow and snowflake are finishing touches.
