Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #169 - Greens & Red


 Happy Monday!  Today Debbie is our Merry Monday Christmas Card challenge hostess and she has a fun one:  Create a card with light green, dark green and red!  This challenge is up for two weeks...can't wait to see what YOU create!



I created a watercolor background using dark and light green ink with touches of red then placed this Lil Inker Design background die cut on top.  I used the die to also cut the red snowflakes to place on top of the white coverall die and finished with Christmas baker's twine from Lawn Fawn.

Please stop by the challenge blog to see the Design Team's terrific projects for this challenge!

    Your die cut plate over the water color base looks fantastic. Love that you colored some of the elements.
