This weekÂ’s TSC challenge was to make a Christmas Card using non-traditional colors.
I went a bit further and did a non traditional Christmas card altogether.
Used the new Clear stamp set from Inque called Out of this World and DP from Pat Smethers that looks like polished chrome. Stamped Robot and Space ship using Black Stazon, cut out and popped both on top of Yellow Corrugated cardstock, base card is black cs. Added gems for spaceship lights and red heart gem for Robots heart, blue gems for his eyes. Robot is holding a silver Christmas Tree with black dots that swings back and forth. Then added Metal Sign for The Spirit of Christmas..inside is computer generated and reads “Christmas Spirit comes in many shapes and forms, wishing you the Christmas Spirit all year long.
Had to upload early as we are leaving in the morning for the weekend.
Hope you like it.

Lol! Judy Kell- this takes the prize for the Most Un-traditional Christmas card ever! I love it. Love your inside sentiment too, and makes me appreciate how everyone is valuable, no matter the shape or different wiring. Your bling is wonderful! I wanna see that lil tree swing! (Two weeks?)

Haha! clever bit of thinking there, before I clicked on this card I was thinking christmas eh! but then looking at your card closer and seeing the christmas lights on the spaceship and Robbie the Robot just about to decorate the inside of his ship with that christmas tree I see where you are coming from, this is such a fun card and would really stand out amongst the usual christmas cards.
