Color Hues #2 Second Helpings!

 

It's not often I'm inclined to make two cards for a challenge these days... but when the mood strikes, I will take advantage of it!  

This card uses the required Navy and Turquoise in an unusual way ... though I might not like Holly [EBE Mondo Holly stamp, and die] in these colors in nature, they look lovely on a Christmas card!

Hope you all enjoyed the weekend ... now back to my regularly scheduled loads of Monday fun!  wink, wink!

  11. Well my 'loads of fun' include a trip to the dentist today...yay...not so much, lol! I'm trying to slowly find a routine, and am working on commenting, so I thought I'd stop by and tell you that I really like this card. Unusual colors for sure, but the effect is stunning. It will definitely spread a bit of holiday 'happiness & cheer.' Stay safe. Bev
