I loved receiving the invitation to play cards with the fabulous
Color Hues team for Challenge #31!
Thanks, Nancy - and thanks to our Hostess, Cindy!
Here are Cindy's very appropriate final color picks for December 2021!
That's right - this challenge will run from now until December 29th! Lots of time to play, and tons of inspiration from their designers! Ready for my card? You can see all the inspiration I needed to make my Red and Green choices right outside my studio window! I'm having lots of feathered friends visiting daily!
A wonderful Berry Sprig set from Pigment Craft Co.*, stamped three times, and their sentiment, too!
Since the coordinating dies cuts the 'you' separately, why not use the CH31 colors there, too?
These are the inks I've used today.
Now, may I dedicate this one to each and every kind person who takes the time in their busy days to stop by my lowly little blog for a visit? You can't know the joy it brings me throughout the year!
Okay. Now it's YOUR turn! Lots of ways to use Red and Green at this time of year! We'll be ready for you in the Color Hues gallery!
Ho, Ho, HO!!
