I'm getting behind in my Christmas card making!! For several weeks, I have missed the challenges at jingle belles. This week the inspiration was a photo and the theme was visions of sugarplums. I think I have mentioned that I am a traditional red, green, and gold Christmas person. Sooooo... purple???
I tried it... purple, dangling, sparkling. I really like how it turned out.
What I used:
~premade 5x7 card, vellum, Bazzill lt purple, silver Slice paper
~vellum embossed with Swiss dots Cuttlebug folder
~ornaments from Christmas Noel cart cut at 2 1/2" and 3 1/4" with blackout
~MS branch punch
~hemp, brads, and stamp

This totally works - the sparkle and texture really is great and I'm more of a traditional Christmas colors person as well so I feel your pain - lol. But you've used the sugarplums inspiration beautifully. Really looks good!
I am in love with this card! Gorgeous! Perfect color choice:-)
