Christmas Card Challenges #5 – Winter Wool

4 Jan

Challenge+5bWe have a fun color challenge for you this week at Christmas Card Challenges!   It’s definitely a non-traditional holiday color scheme but one that lends itself nicely to warm and elegant cards!

Aren’t those sheep cute?!  Anyway, here’s my card!  My camera went a little wonky so the colors appear darker in the photo but the base card stock is a warm chocolate brown with the various shades of gold and brown in the other elements of the card!

Please visit the other design team members for more ideas and inspiration!  There are some amazing cards out there this week!

  • Carol
  • Donna
  • Gail
  • Heather
  • JoAnn
  • Lisa
  • Margo
  • Marsha
  • Monica
  • Shirley Anne
  • Tenia

I hope you’ll play along with this week’s challenge!  I look forward to seeing your cards!
