Happy Holidays

 I love making Christmas cards with non-traditional colors. I was a little stumped with this Color Dare challenge combo, and I got the idea when flipping through my die cuts! I'd like to enter the card below into the following challenges:

Color Dare #675


Jingle Belles - Dashing Through the Snow

Simon Says Stamp Monday - Add Some Texture

Moving Along with the Times #183 - Winter Wonderland

I first took some watercolor paper and ink smooshed the 3 colors on it. I then die cut the Christmas trees from it. I had some leftover ink on my glass mat, so I sprayed it with water and then smooshed another piece of cardstock all over it, which gave a subtle ink smooshing of the same colors, almost making them look pastel. I stamped the sentiment directly on the background and applied some Fun Flock to the top to look like snow. Peace.
