I made this ATC for khall's Soft Subtle Winter ATC swap. The guidelines allowed for neutrals, but I stretched the rules a little bit to work in the rich browns. Although Chocolate Chip is in Earth Elements, I think most people would agree that it is a great neutral. I've made use of my favorite things on this ATC: a Marvy Uchida scalloped punch, Cuttlebug embossing folder and tag die, Gamsol magic, stitched ribbon, and brown.
Edited to add: The background for the winter scene is Pale Plum. The snowflakes were highlighted with my white Signo while the snowman and ground were done with a white Prismacolor pencil and a little blending.

This is just eye poppingly stunning! Did you stamp the tree on the pale plum paper or white? If on plum, how did you get the snow to be white? GORGEOUS!!!!!
