Sparkle hosts a
Christmas Challenge every Sunday and this week the challenge was to make a pink Christmas card and
Winter Wonderland was holding an open theme for their challenge. I know, you all think I'm nuts for posting a Christmas card in April. What can I say, I was inspired. We send a silly amount of Christmas cards, so it's never too early for me to start.
This was such a fun card to make! I used my favorite Penny Black snowflake for the background and I dug through the vast array of pink stuff I've been accumulating. The ribbon and flower are from heaven-only-knows-where, but I really enjoy how they look on this card.
I jazzed up my antlered friend so she would be ready for a merry gathering. :) Since this is basically a monochromatic card it also fits the
Raise the Bar challenge that's going on this week. They want you to use your favorite color on a card. I'm not sure that pink is my favorite color, but then then again I'm not sure I have a favorite color. Color really depends on my mood, the season, and it's purpose. I really only like warm colors on walls and my friends and family joke about how much I dislike blue (you wouldn't know from the number of blue cards I make!!).
So, what is you favorite color right now?
Fantastic pink card! Love that sentiment and the glitzy flower he or she (?) is wearing!
ReplyDeleteYou are definitely not nuts for posting a Christmas card in April - just getting ahead of the game - you will be so happy you did come December! So glad you were able to play along with us at Sparkle's Christmas Card Challenge!

I agree my fav. colour changes as well. Mind you I do like burgundy. But it has to be the right shade, lol.
So pretty, I love the flower bling!
