Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #52

                                                                 The challenge this week is using those three colors.  I used PTI ripe avocado, scarlet jewel,  and fine linen.  For my card I stamped my background holly leaves using fine linen ink on fine linen paper.The mistletoe is die cut with the fine linen but stamped with ripe avocado.  the berries are from scarlet jewel paper.  My sentiment is from Bells and Boughs.

  This was a fun challenge and I hope to do this every week.  It is a nice way to get those Christmas cards made without all the stress of doing many of them at the last minute.  If you would like to play along go Here.

Beautiful card Colleen, I have used the holly image from this set many times but never the mistletoe. You have inspired me. Thank you so much for playing with us at Merry Monday this week!
