Seeing Double

Yes, you've seen this card before. Just earlier today as a matter of fact! I decided to make more to submit to the Christmas card challenge at Splitcoast Stampers. It's a great challenge, you simply sign up to make so many cards per month and post them. I said I would do four each month, definitely a doable number, unlike the 10 I tried to complete each month in previous years! The twist of a challenge for January was to use non-traditional holiday colors. When I saw the color challenge at the CAS - Colors and Sketches challenge blog, I knew exactly what combo I was going to use -- Crumb cake, Summer starfruit, Gumball green. Now I have a confession to make, I could not find a hint of Crumb cake card stock (shocker, I know). So I substituted with kraft. The stamps are from Hero Arts that I bought myself for Christmas! Enjoy the rest of your weekend cause it will be over before you know it.

WEll, I certainly like this one as much as the other that I was able to view this morning. I think it can be a wonderful go-to card throughout the year. I noticed you used the same flower embellishment but in different colors. I may have missed it, but I didn't see what you used to make these flowers...they are adorable. Please don't tell me they are pre-made and I have to go looking somewhere...haha
