Hi Crafty Friends, and welcome back! My craft room is buzzing with all kinds of Christmas crafting, and I couldn’t wait any longer to share this lovely card in non-traditional colors.

Last year I shared several tips for selecting non-traditional holiday color palettes, and you can find it HERE, HERE, and HERE.

I created this card using lovely, soft blues and greens from my Catherine Pooler Spa ink collection, and the Altenew Mistletoe Wreath bundle.

CP ink colors: Stone Blue, Cove Blue, Juniper Mist, Sea Foam, Sea Glass, Bay Breeze

I love how easy the layered stencils make ink blending, and the 3D embossing folder adds extra dimension to the lovely wreath. I used my favorite silver metallic WOW embossing powder for the outline, and the Layered Snowflake 3D embossing folder for background dimension.

What do you think? Aren’t these soft colors lovely for Christmas cards? I just adore this card, and I hope you like it too. Please leave a comment and tell me what your favorite Christmas color combos are. Love and crafty hugs!

I'm a wife, mom, and former teacher. I decided to create a blog and share some of the ways I express myself everyday. You'll usually find my latest card creations, but I plan to throw in some projects from around the house as well. Maybe I'll even post a recipe once in a while. You never know what you're going to get!
