Christmas Pines for 52CCT2…!

Hello Everyone!

I know it is Real Early for this…BUT…this is how I build my

Christmas Card stash for the end of year mailings!

I do the Christmas Challenges out there in Blog land!

Today’s Card is the first Card I have made for this year!

Today’s Challenger is

52 Christmas Card Throwdown 2-19

It is a Color Challenge!

 

Here is the Challenge!

Purple and Green?

 

It took a lot of thinking but, look what I came up with!

Very Trendy!

I like how this card turned out!

 

Here is what I did to the inside of my Card!

I had to bring those pines inside!

I used 2 different greens, the pines appear more realistic!

I know it seems early for Christmas Cards…As I said above…this is how I build up

my stash for the end of the year mailing!

Then I don’t have to make all my cards at the end of the year,

during the busiest time of the year to boot!
