My card today is for this weeks SCS Color Combination Challenge hosted by Betty. She chose a fabulous palette of colors and added a fourth. I am slowly learning that just because there are three or four colors, I do not have to give them "all" equal time on my card. I snuck Tangerine Tango in there with the snowman nose...
The layout is from this weeks MFT Wed Sketch Club #91.
I wanted to use the Merry Kissmas stamp set and decided to go with some non traditional holiday colors. I had picked up a new paper pad on my trip to Ft Lauderdale week before last and it had just the right colors!
