I've got Christmas on the brain so even though the colors this week at colourQ are anything but Christmas-y I wanted to use them for another Christmas card anyway!
And in a strange twist of fate The Challenge wants us to make "non-traditional" Christmas card. Yay! A little help from the sketch at Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge and I was off. I didn't actually have any real wood in my stash so I used the next best thing - woodgrain patterned paper!
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have time to play along with us at colourQ! The design team has made some amazing cards so be sure to check them out!
Supplies:
Stamps: Holiday Greetings (Amy R Stamps)
Paper: Sweet Tooth (My Favorite Things); Chocolate Chip, Summer Starfruit, Blushing Bride, Melon Mambo, Woodland Walk DSP (SU)
Ink: White (WPlus9)
Accessories: Blueprints 15 die Favorite Things); Blooming Poinsettia die (Memory Box); white embossing powder; enamel dots (My Mind's Eye)

Great way to take these non-traditional colors right into the Christmas season, Jen. This is a brilliant idea! Love that pale poinsettia against the woodgrain paper. This is just so beautiful. I think you've got a winner here.... Bev
