Peace on Earth in Non-Traditional Colors

One of the things I enjoy doing is using non-traditional colors for some of my Christmas cards.  The colors from the CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge were perfect.  And, the theme from the Cut It Up Challenge gave me the opportunity to use the new Carols of Christmas stamp set and Card Front Builder Thinlits Dies.  I love how those pretty pink poinsettias from the Peace on Earth.


Stamp Set:  Carols of Christmas (Stampin' Up!); Inks:  Blushing Bride, Night of Navy (Stampin' Up!); Cardstock:  Blushing Bride, Night of Navy, Soft Sky (Stampin' Up!); Other:  Card Front Builder Thnlits Dies (Stampin' Up!), Golden Sunset Glitter Drops (Nuvo)

The colors I used are from the CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge.  For all the challenge details and to share your project, click the image below.

    I love the pink poinsettias! This card is so pretty, you could frame it and use it as a Christmas decoration.

    Thanks for joining us for our Christmas in July challenge at Cut it Up!

      Thanks, Evelyn! Framing it is a wonderful idea. I may just have to do that.
