When it comes to Christmas and holiday cards, some prefer the traditional colors of green and red, while others prefer something more non-traditional. These colors could include navy, purple, pink, crumb cake, and even black. I’m good with either!
Today, I share a Christmas card sporting the non-traditional colors of Secret Sea, Cloud Cover, Pretty in Pink, and Strawberry Slush. What do you think?
For the inside, I added a sentiment from the Jolly Holly stamp set (Online Exclusive) and a piece of Strawberry Slush foil from the Flower Garden Foils 12 x 12 Specialty Paper.
