I'm really gonna hate to go back to work tomorrow...

... then I won't have as much time for these fun challenges! This one is for 365 Cards Day 86... having Grape Fun: the mission is to use purple as the primary color, and incorporate at least 5 circles on your card.


Paper: Angelee CS, Genevieve FWIC (retired... how sad)


Other: Willoughby Ribbon, Transcendence EP, pop dots, misc. jewels, foam tape

I did the ol' rock-n-roll method on the tree, more fussy-cutting on the DP and tree, and topped it off with a pretty bow. One more card toward my goal this month for Paper Wings Christmas Club done!!

What do you think?

This is really stunning. I don't normally like modern, non-traditional coloured Christmas cards, but this is fab!

Barb this is truly beautiful. I love it. I love it when people makes christmas cards that are different than red, green and gold. Do you know what I mean. Beautiful Barb.
