I created a card using purple and green papers instead of the traditional red and green typically associated with Christmas. Unfortunately, the sentiment on the tree did not photograph well. Although there isn't a great deal of contrast in person, it's more easily read than here. I could either get the letters to show better and be blinded by the glare of the glittery purple or save our sight and not have the lettering be as defined. In the interest of protecting our vision in order to later view the rest of the Design Team projects, I went with the latter option. The tree reads, "We wish you a merry Christmas".
Now it's time to head over to Little Red Wagon to check out the rest of the non-traditional winter holiday projects and then link up one (or more!) of your own.
Love your colours and background Kate can just about read the tree, is that a stamp?..fabulous card..

What great colors. I love the festive feel and can just imagine how beautiful it must be IRL.
ReplyDeleteHihihihihi...it can be frustrating photographing our cards, can't it?! Often the photos just don't do them justice. I love the purple and green colors you've chosen here, Kate (I'm a fan of that lime green); the glittery purple strip sets off the tree beautifully and the little gem at the top of the tree is the perfect finishing touch. I hope you had a wonderful cruise! Thanks so much for the recent visit to my blog. Your comments were most welcome and enjoyed.
ReplyDeleteFantastic card, Kate! Loving these colours for Christmas. Thanks for your concern for our vision. (:
