CR84FN #7



***If you are looking for the Winter Wonderland Blog Hop it is in the next post.***

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Last week I participated in Mona Pendleton's CR84FN challenge, and lucky me, I was picked to be this week's guest designer. :) This week's color combo is so pretty and the inspiration pictures are just lovely.



Here is the card that I made to go along with it.





I decided to go with a non-traditional holiday card. I pulled out my Papertrey goodies for this one. The wreath is stamped with Wreath for All Seasons. I used Dark Chocolate and Melonberry Inks. The sentiment comes from Holiday Button Bits. I embossed some Kraft cardstock and mounted the banner onto it. Then, I added some scrunched seam binding and a Prima flower. I added Platinum Stickles to both the flower and the berries on the wreath.



It was so much fun to play along. I love Mona's color combos. They are so inspiring!
Be sure to stop by HER BLOG to see the challenge and to play along.

Have a great day! And thanks for visiting.
