Stampin' Up! Australia - Color Coach Card #128 - Stampin' Up! Christmas Card

Sahara Sand #1

#ColorCoachJourney 

Hi

Welcome to this week's Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge.

I chose Color Coach colours of Sahara Sand, Pear Pizzazz and Early Espresso to make a neutral toned Christmas Card.

Please don't look at the crooked pearls!! DON'T JUDGE ME! :)


The sketch called for diagonal details so I just used the Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder to keep the layers minimal. 

Here is our sketch...




Card recipe

  1. I am loving these non-traditional Christmas colors! Those pearls add wonderful elegance. Simply beautiful, but if it were me that card would only be reserved for someone very special. Some things are just too pretty to just give away. ;)
