At Christmas Stampin' All Year Long, we create Christmas cards every Monday. By the time November rolls around, we'll have a whole bunch of Christmas cards ready to send out!! That spells out a lot of stress relief for me! Our fabulous leader, Maria has created another super challenge for us to do. This will be challenge #15. We were given this photo to use as our inspiration. I looked at this photo and I love the teal and metallics so I chose to use these elements for my card. i used the pretty teal blue and for my metallic I used silver ink and embossed it to make it really pretty.
I used some pretty Heidi Grace paper and Bazzill cardstock. My stamp is by Inkadinkado.
Be sure to visit the Christmas Stampin' All Year Long blog to see what the other challenge divas created. I also have them listed on my sidebar. We'd love for you to play along, just leave a comment and a link to your creation on the Christmas Stampin' All Year Long blog or if you upload to SCS or PCP, use the keyword CSAYL.

I love the image that you used. . .it gives the card a traditional feel with non-traditional colors! I'm glad to see you back crafting. HOpe you feel better soon and be sure to take care of yourself!!
