Purple Christmas ...

Good afternoon!  If you've visited my blog recently you have seen the Christmas cards that I have been making in colours other than traditional red and green.  Well just when I thought I would try some in traditional colours the wonderful designers over at "Less is More" decided that this weeks challenge would be to create a Christmas card NOT using red or green!!! So this is my contribution to my growing stash of Christmas cards.


A simple design, I think I might make a view more of this design in different colours and maybe a little more embossing.

 I used:

 Uniko Studio - Stunning Snowflakes
Distress Inks - Picked Raspberry, Shaded Lilac
Memento Ink - Grape Jelly

 I'm also going to enter the challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More where the theme is Clean and Simple.

 Enjoy!

    I really like the non-traditional colours for the snowflakes and the way you cut the circle to make it frame the sentiment. Lovely. Thanks so much for playing along with ASM this week!
