Warm Joy
Have you stopped by the Christmas Crafts All Year Round blog yet? Our new monthly challenge is up....
Normally when you think of Christmas, you think cold and snow...this month, we want you to think WARM! Use warm colors on your project
...reds, yellows, oranges.
This was a bit of a tricky one for me. I scoured all my Christmas stuff and I didn't really have anything in those warm colors. Then I happened upon some sheets for a Simple Stories album...since I don't do mini albums, I decided to cut the sheets I wanted to create my card instead. One of those sheets was this really cool star die cut in a glitter cardstock...I thought this would make an awesome layer. I did some fussy cutting on another sheet for the flowers and then I picked up a new die cut earlier this year, that I haven't used yet. It's from Penny Black called "Joy to the World". I wanted to add a bit of orange in there so I cut it out of orange glitter paper and added just some plain orange ribbon from my stash.
Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to head to the blog to see the rest of the DT inspiration and to play along with us!
