SPCC 25, card 2

The color combo Samantha picked over at SPCC was begging to be made into more Christmas cards, so here goes take 2 on this weeks color challenge. Unfortunately, it doesn't photograph very well, the background matches the Very Vanilla CS, and washes it all out! Wah! The gems are totally Certainly Celery...truest me on this one...and THANKS Dollarama!!!

Come on over to the SPCC site ladies, to enter your own creation, or just to peek at the other entries! So much creativity over there, just begging to be shared!

SPCC Christmas Color Combo #4

I really tried to do a clean and simple card! I did, I promise! But then....then....the gems were calling me! I couldn't leave it alone! Some of the CAS cards I see are so beautiful, and I admire them so much. But when ever I do something CAS I think it doesn't look "done", and I keep going. Anyway, I like how it's turned out, even with the bling ;o) Thanks again to Samantha at SPCC for the inspiring combo, link here to see the swatch yourself and to check out all the other entries http://spcolorcombos.blogspot.com/2009/09/christmas-color-combo-4.html
