Color Throwdown 221

 A few months ago I was beyond thrilled when Tammy asked me to be the Guest Designer for December and January for the Color Throwdown!  I often play along in their challenges and really like their color combos.

Barbara is our hostess this week and she has chosen some traditional Christmas colors for us!  Riding Hood Red, Gumball Green, Kraft and Black.  I have wanted to color up this chapel image for some time and this was the perfect color combo for it. 
The finished size is 5.5 square.


Here is the inside of my card.
  • Stamps: Serendipity Stamps - Christmas Chapel, Warmest Wishes, Crystal Snowflake
  • Ink: Memento - Tuxedo Black, Versafine - Crimson Red
  • Paper: Neenah Solar White, Gumball Green, black & brown cardstock, MME Merry 6x6
  • Copics: G40, G43, G46, G94, YG91, YG93, YG95, B0000, R35, R37, Y23, N0, N1, E70, E74
  • Other: Spellbinders - Labels 26, Viva Pearl Pen - Ice White, Perfect Layers, Impression Obsession scalloped die
