Non Traditional Christmas Colours

Welcome back crafting friends. It's the first of June so time for another challenge at Christmas Crafts All Year 'Round :-)
Our challenge this month, hosted by the Gingerbread Gals is all about non-traditional Christmas colours :-)


June Challenge ~ Non-Traditional Christmas Colours
Prize ~  please visit the CCAYR blog

I'm a creature of habit, so for me the ONLY colours for Christmas are green, red and gold. And I'll also enjoy the odd blue, white and silver colour combination.  So for this challenge I had to think of other colours and it wasn't easy for me.  But as luck would have it, my SIL who lives in Holland and knows how much I enjoy stitching on cards, sent me another few kits and I fell in love with this specific one which I think fits this challenge perfectly.  After all, green, blue and grey are not the colour combo I would use for Christmas :-)





So, dear friends, what do you think about my non-traditional Christmas colours?
As always, I enjoyed working on these cards. I find stitching on cards very relaxing and it helps pass the time when you have to sit and wait for somebody somewhere :-)
I added little stitched corners to the inside of each card and stamped my Christmas greetings.
The images came with the card kit and are 3 layers thick. In case you also enjoy stitching on cards and would like this kit, here is the information ~ Stitch and Do 65 by Amy Designs, sold by Find It Trading.

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you've enjoyed your visit and will play along with us.  You have till the end of the month to link your Christmas project to the CCAYR blog.  Please take a few minutes and visit our blog to see all the wonderful projects made by The Gingerbread Gals.  And don't forget to come back on the 15th, when the Christmas Belles will post their projects for your mid-month inspiration.
