Colour Dare #424 Non-Traditional Christmas Colours Challenge

Our Colour Dare Challenge for #424 is a non-traditional Christmas Colour Challenge. You are free to use Black, White, Neutrals, Gold & Silver too. You are invited to participate in this challenge. Go to the link for Colour Dare #424 and add your entry. When you submit your entry you must provide a link to your post, not just to your blog in general. There are LOTS of ways to enter either a Blog Post or post to an online gallery (Facebook, Pinterest, SplitCoast Stampers, or Instagram).

Firstly I pulled out the Mix-in Paper Packet (Nov–Dec) and selected the blue stripe with the blue stars on the back as my main paper for the non-traditional colour choices. 

Then I cut with my big shot and the thin cut and stamped a Gnome for Christmas gnome, and coloured it with Blue Triblend Marker, grey for the beard and skin colour for the skin. 

Then I cut the next thin cuts, Merry Christmas, Christmas bauble and star from the 

Jingle Joy—Scrapbooking stamp set and stamped them all in Sapphire Exclusive Inks™ Stamp Pad. The Mix in paper matches the baubles perfectly. I coloured a little bit of blue to match in the gnome blue and the sapphire. 

To finish the card off, I adhered the backing, the gnome and the bauble with 

Tombow® Permanent Adhesive and then the Merry Christmas and the star were adhered with Thin 3-D Foam Tape.

Thanks so much for dropping by to check out my latest project. Hope you can join in the Colour My Heart Colour Dare Challenge #424 too. I'm really interested to hear what you think about my cards, so I'd love you to leave a comment. See you again soon, subscribe to my blog so you don't miss a challenge.
