Color Hues: Red and Green

December is upon us! Time for a new Color Hues challenge, and how appropriate for the beginning of December - our colours are RED and GREEN! Of course red and green can be used for more than just Christmas cards, but that's certainly what I need right now, so that's the direction I took: 

I love this big poinsettia frame stamp - especially the fact that the design work is done for you! ;) After stamping and embossing it, I coloured the poinsettias with Copics. I considered adding some green to the evergreen elements as well, but decided to leave the focus on the flowers. The sentiment can be left as is, but I decided to die cut the letters out of the panel and inlay with black glitter paper instead. The secondary sentiments are stamped in red and embossed. The only other colour I added is small dots of gold Smooch paint in the poinsettia centres. The card base is lightly coloured with distress ink.

This challenge will be open until December 29th - this gives the design team a bit of a break, and you more time to join us!
