This week challenge is brought to us by Mary (octoberbabe) and she has chosen Early Espresso, Gray Granite, and Pecan Pie for the colors. Dessert is Fall but I needed to make this Christmas card.
To create my card, I tore off Frog Tape to mask for birch trees and placed them where needed. Next, I stamped my image. After that, I sponged the sky and snow, then pulled off the tape leaving the car and snowmen behind the trees. I used a handmade snow template for the snowbanks. The moon was made using Frog Tape on cardstock, punching it out and pulling of the Frog Tape to place for a mask. The old cut-up credit card was used to make the marks on the birch tree.
I used a couple of neutrals, Mossy Meadow and Night of Navy. I did not have Mossy Meadow so I used Always Artichoke.

The snowdrifts, trees and moon are what really make this Christmas card special, Brenda! Cute snowmen, who seem to be having a jolly time in this snowy scene~

I love how you took a somber palette and brightened it up with your neutral shades. Those snowmen look like they're off to have some fun!
