Papertrey Ink blog hop


It's that time of the month again for the Papertrey Ink blog hop. This month's challenge is a non-tradtional color challenge for Christmas. I chose this pretty palette of Smokey Shadow, Ocean Tides, Aqua Mist and Soft Stone.

These colors are so soft and soothing. Boy am I excited to have at least one Christmas card made and it is only October!
 
 
For my card, I used Soft Stone for the card base. Then I die cut some Stamper's Select White and Aqua Mist cardstock using Angled Labels. I inked up Background Basics: Text Style with Ocean Tides ink. I die cut a Peace Be Still snowflake and added some Martha Stewart Coarse glittler. The sentiment is from Signature Christmas inked up in Smokey Shadow. I finished it off with some Ocean Tides grosgrain ribbon.
 
Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the hop!!!

    What a pretty card. I love the color scheme you selected. It's fun to see you use supplies I have, and have forgotten about. Nice reminder to dig a little deeper in my stash.

    Beautifully simple card. This is the same colour scheme I was initially going to use. I do love the elegant and toned down palette. Great card Deb ;)
