Jeanne is our hostess in the Color Challenge this week, and she has asked us to use Coastal Cabana, Balmy Blue and Soft Seafoam for our cards. We're doing Christmas in July as our dessert option/theme for most of the month (except next week--stay tuned for a special week coming up!).
I used the Faux Mother of Pearl technique for the Coastal Cabana layer, and cut it out with a stitched rectangle die. Then I stamped and die cut all the parts of my bouquet and arranged them on the card with the greeting in the center. Added three Icy Sparkle Crystals for the finishing touch.
This month is going to be great for building up our stashes of Christmas cards, so please join us!

So pretty Barbara! All those die cut branches and flowers look fabulous popping out from behind the sentiment and the Coastal Canbana layer. You worked these colors to perfection!
