Barbara has a lovely, rather monochromatic, color combination for us as we start wrapping up 2021. I tried a few ideas and when I combined Bermuda Bay and Evening Evergreen on a baby wipe I got a color that really stood in for Pretty Peacock very well. (Mine is up at the lake.) But the design for that card wasn't working. Then I decided to try this sketch that I haven't used for awhile. I tried blending Bermuda Bay onto the lower portion of the card and then putting a light layer of Early Evergreen over it, with Pool Party at the top. Not quite as spot on as the baby wipe technique as a stand in but I stayed with it since I loved how these snowflakes were working. The blending was done on white to keep the "blues" from becoming too green. I tried stamping my greeting on ribbon but it didn't work. I guess I've been hitting the Christmas candy a bit too hard anyway...
Thanks for much for taking a peek. I hope you can play with us!

I think this is more like what I was dreaming of - we used the same things again this week and came up with two very different looks. I love the accent on the vanilla with yours. I love your card!
