My card for the Color Challenge hosted by Chris. Her fabulous colors are Poppy Parade, Shaded Spruce, Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green with DSP for the dessert option.
I wanted to try the Fractured Card technique. My SCS friend, CJ had sent me a card in this style. Then, I started to see it all over the Internet. When I found a DSP in my stash with the red & pink challenge colors, it was time to make it happen. I laid down the DSP on a Granny Apple Green mat. I die-cut a stitched square, stamped a sentiment and adhered it to the DSP. I cut strips in the same color as mat and laid them one by one around the square in the manner you see here. I decorated with Shaded Spruce die-cut foliage, a sparkly red glimmer bow and some pink jewels.
I like to have some cards on hand that are Christmassy but are not totally dedicated to being a Christmas card. This one could be for Christmas, but also could be a thank you, thinking of you or even a birthday card. Good to have in the stash!
Thanks Chris for the wonderful colors. Hope everyone will join in with their creativity. I am so looking forward to seeing what everyone makes! TFL

Beautiful! The design as well as the colors go perfectly with your Christmas headline. Brilliant idea! The die cuts are the perfect finish for this awesome card...
