\n<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/a>
\n<\/a>I\u00a0really like the colors in today’s Color Challenge (CC622<\/a>) on Splitcoast…watermelon, navy & mint. And while at first, they brought to mind flowers or summer, I thought they would also be terrific for a winter card. The dessert option was to use designer paper. Well…I made my designer paper; by stamping the winter words on the mint first using white pigment ink, then stamping them again, slightly offset in the pistachio ink. On the watermelon strip, I stamped them first w\/ the coral ink, then in w\/white ink.<\/span>
\n<\/a>\"\"<\/a>Note: Since this is an older post & 2 of the companies are no longer open, I have added some alternatives to their products.<\/em> The mittens were die cut 4 times: once in white, and again in the watermelon, mint & navy colors then paper pieced together. The white snowflake centerpiece was added w\/ just one word of the greeting in navy on a leftover circle of white linen c\/s.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/a>\"\"<\/a>Here’s a look at the inside, w\/ the entire greeting.
