Brown Christmas Card...

 


Never have I made a Christmas Card where I used shades of "Brown" predominantly.   Since this is the year I wanted to "branch out" and try different challenges and challenges out of my comfort zone I decided to give the current challenge at 52CCTD my best shot.   I am also linking to some "anything goes" challenges...Just click below and it will take you to the Websites.     The verdict is out on my card.  There are some lovely cards that have been posted for this challenge.   It's just that I have always been very traditional with Christmas (red/green black/gray with pops of color, or shades of blue). So I went shopping and  I downloaded some lace papers and used a very old CTMH set to create a Nativity.   The embellishments are SU Cinnamon Cider (last year's incolor) in this years book!    I am starting to incorporate digital into my artwork...I just love the brown lace papers I downloaded from Etsy.   I look forward to building my digi stamp collection.     I would love to know what you think!   Thanks for stopping by!   Kathy

    Well done for challenging yourself, I think it definitely worked out. Your lace papers are gorgeous, and give a lovely textured look behind the cute nativity. Thanks for playing along with us at 52CCT this week, hope to see you again soon.
