Christmas Card Challenges #13: Color Inspiration

1 Mar

Challenge+13

Hi and welcome back to another Christmas Card Challenge!  I love this week’s color challenge…those colors seems so warm and cozy!  And as we’re still hanging out in 20 degree weather around here, those gloves and that hot drink are also incredibly appealing! 😉

WinterHues_1Here’s my card:

Jessica #13I LOVE this Hero Arts set!  I know mistletoe isn’t brown or red 😉 but I thought this brown, kraft, and red color scheme would play nicely together with the stamp set!  I embossed the berries and the sentiment with Zing Red Glitter embossing powder and it’s SOOO sparkly!  I used the Simon Says Stamp Stitched Rectangles die with Neenah Desert Storm and Simon Says Stamp Dark Chocolate cardstock for the card base.

I look forward to seeing your entries this week!  And don’t forget to check out the rest of the design team!
