...sweetest holiday wishes...

I can now stroke another Christmas card of my list! Now this card was out of the norm for me that is for sure! I used colours that are not very Christmas like. I just wanted to try colours that I love together and see what happens...
I used a couple of stamps sets that I have to create this card. I used, Old Fashioned Christmas Set from Justrite, Quilters Sampler and Holiday Button Bits from Papertrey. I coloured everything up with copics. I used my Martha Stewart snowflake punch for the center of the card. I finished the card off with a little stitching around the edge of the card.
I have to say I am truly enjoying the blogs with all the inspiration they provide! There is so much talent out there!

What a sweet color combo, reminds me of an ice cream, which is OK, since it's a snowman, does that make any sense?? Love it, as usual, Christine!! Hugs Nilla
