I'm playing along with the
Tenth Annual
Month of Holiday Cards Challenge
~~~*~~~*~~~
(Beccy's post with a description of Complementary Colours on the
Colour Wheel and Red-Green candy frame card to inspire are HERE)
My "Complementary Colours" are RED and GREEN
No colouring by me today ... instead I have used pre-coloured images by Beccy.
My card uses the three different pre-coloured proteas from the Proteas digital stamp set from the Beccy's Place Store and a made-by-me "Merry Christmas" sentiment. It's great how we can layer and re-size the digital images. I used my Silhouette Cameo to make and cut fancy scalloped circle top folding card bases. (I used a scalloped circle shaped cut file, rotated so that two scallops were level at the bottom, allowing the circle card to stand. I duplicated the "front" and flipped it vertically, overlapped them and welded to create my top folding card with scallops that matched perfectly.) I sized the image panels and sentiments to fit inside a circle to go on the front of the cards, printed then cut them and used liquid adhesive to secure the pretty proteas in place.

I love that we have so many unique flowers that are perfect for Christmas Tracy, it's nice to have an Aussie flavour every now and then. You've done a great job working with the digital images. I agree that moving and layering them is one of the big advantages over traditional stamps. Love the shaped bases you used.
