Today's color challenge is:
marina mist
cherry cobbler
early espresso
none of which I have. So, I came as close as I could.
My image is a digital from TLC. I never heard this legend and loved the rooster, so I purchased it yesterday and was able to use it with these colors. I added rhinestones to imitate a snow fall....it is Christmas after all, so listen for that rooster (we don't have roosters in the city, so I'll just use my imagination!) Dessert is to make a Christmas card.

Hi, Vicky. This is a new legend for me, too. Interesting what you learn on SCS. Love your holiday card with great texture and lay-out. Love your out of the box trees.

Lovely Christmas card to illustrate your legend, Vicky. When I saw just the thumbnail, I thought "What's up?".....but it was soon explained when I clicked on it. Beautiful coloring on both the bg and the colorful rooster. Thanks for introducing me to this legend.
