I love these color combos and think they are terrific for Christmas! In fact I bought a roll of kraft paper just to wrap gifts and cover it with red twine, ribbons and tags...I think the presents will look so pretty under the tree! I actually had this piece of kraft already stamped with some branches and pine cones from a set my BFF has...I had pulled it out and also found this strip of red in the same box, so I had mounted it on the side and wasn't sure what I was going to do with it, but then the MERRY MONDAY Challenge came up and voila... and I just realized this would work for the FESTIVE FRIDAY CHALLENGE ! It was craft red and green AND peace. I pulled out Mistletoe and Holly and die cut my mistletoe with some ripe avocado paper and then stamped the design with simply chartreuse.
