Stamp TV CSS December Hop


Hi and welcome to the CSS Blog Hop!
If you came to my blog from Miesje fabulous blog, you are right on track. If you have just stopped by for a visit, Thank You and I invite you to check the blog hop from the beginning, here.
This month Linda Payne provided a fun color challenge for us. The challenge is to create a Christmas card using non-traditional colors - with absolutely NO red or Green!  Doesn't that sound like a fun challenge?!!
I used purple, brown and ivory for my non-traditional colors.
 
The poinsettia's are from A Year of Flowers and were colored with copics - RV 91, 93, 95. I added brown pearls to the centers.
The frame is from Lovely Labels 2 and the sentiment is from Winter Foliage.
 
Make sure to leave a comment on each designer's blog as you hop along because on Friday morning (December 21), we will randomly choose one of the comments from all the blogs and that person will receive a HUGE grab bag of fabulous Gina K. Designs Stamps! Wouldn't that be a awesome Christmas present?!!
 
As always we would love for you to play along with us by creating a Christmas card/project using non-traditional colors!
 
Now I am going to send you on your way to Tera's awesome blog!
Enjoy the rest of the hop!
