The Christmas Card Challenge





Good morning!

Here's the inspiration photo for the Christmas Card Challenge today:




I had fun with the purple!
 Definitely not a color I think of for Christmas, but one I will use more often after this challenge...I really enjoyed the non traditional Christmas color.

I started out with a Lovely Lilac background, cut out with Lil Inker stitched rectangles. Then I made a tag with Lil Inker any time tags die set. The tree is from Impression Obsession, and the sentiment from Reverse Confetti. I added some Lawn fawn mini snowflakes to finish the card.

Head on over to the Christmas Card Challenge and play along! It's always nice to get a head start on your cards for next year!


Paper: SU lovely lilac, white, DP, glitter
Dies: Lil inker stitched rectangles and any time tags, Reverse Confetti winter words, Lawn Fawn mini snowflakes
Other: silver cord

That lavendar is so soft and pretty and makes such a special Christmas card. I love the sparkly snowflakes too!
