In a previous post, I shared a host of holiday card examples featuring the Jar of Joy stamp set and the punch. I played with more traditional Christmas colors for those. See the post here.

For today’s card, however, I chose a more non-traditional approach. I use the colors of Bubble Bath, Petunia Pop, and Smoky Slate. Are you a traditionalist with a lean toward red and green? Or do you prefer non-traditional Christmas colors?

  • Smoky Slate card stock base measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored and folded at 4 1/4
