The Christmas Kickstart Challenge #96 - Reminder

 

We're in excellent company this month as our elf is none other than my dear friend, Arlene from A Bit of This and That...

 

We've had some gorgeous entries with stunning colour palette's thus far. It's interesting to see your colour choices when green, red and gold are off the menu, and it seems that pink is very popular with shades of green not far behind. You guys rock!

Arlene has very kindly created a brand new card for this Reminder. Don't you just love the snow dudes basking in the Winter sunlight. Such fun, and another great colour choice too. Thanks so much, Arlene. 

Here's a quick reminder of Arlene's first card for this challenge. I think her palette is just so pretty and harmonious, and I wish I had her eye for colour combos. 

Here's my 'Inspired by Arlene...' creation. This beautiful stamp called Darkroom Door Christmas Post has sat unused in my stash for ages, and after seeing Arlene's mail inspired card I knew it was time to ink it up and get stamping. 

The ink is clear embossed and gives a lovely sheen to the card. I left my colouring sparse to avoid making the design look too busy.

Rudolph is offering a sweet price again this month...

Please make sure you check the Challenge Guidelines before you enter so that Rudolph can include in the draw for his Random Rafflle Prize. 

So come and play along with Arlene and me: Step away from the traditional and see what you can create using a colour palette that's NOT the norm!
