This one has totally NON TRADITIONAL Christmas colors but it's really pretty, if I say so myself. Hope you think so too. I will link this card to a few challenges at the end of this post.
This image is from a set from Power Poppy by Marcella Hawley called Cozy Cupfuls, all of the images are beautiful. I stamped this one onto a die cut panel of Strathmore multi media paper with Versafine black ink and clear heat embossed it, then colored with SU markers and an aqua painter.
The sentiment comes in this set, the purple vellum paper is from my stash, the golden one from SU but it's retired.
Here is a close up of the pearls.

Here is a picture of the finished inside of my card.
The sentiment is from another Power Poppy set called Spice It Up, also with gorgeous images of oranges and cloves, hmmmm!! smells so good.
The images at the bottom are from Merry Littles, my "go to" set from Power Poppy, to adorn the inside of my Holiday cards.
I would like to enter this card onto the following challenges.
Color Throwdown #421
Crafty Creation Challenges #329 "Christmas"

Oh Maria what a fabulous colour combo it's very striking I love it and the image you used was perfect. I love reading how you made your card, I stamp or print first then I cut the die cut out, everyone is different. This is a lovely card and thanks so much for sharing your talent with us over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 and good luck.

Jazzy colors! I've not inked up my own set of this gasp! I've got plenty ready to mail I look forward to swapping!
I really DO like the non-traditional color combo that you used. REALLY pretty. I'm so glad that you stopped by the Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 blog and shared your work with us.
