'Uniquely' Colored Christmas Blessing

Today's challenge letter is 'U' in Beccy's Place 30 days of Christmas Cards.  

For my entry I selected Stampendous, 'Candy Canes'.



While I know my Copic shades pretty good, I don't know their color naming.  I started by searching to see if there was a Copic name that started with a 'U'.  I found that E29 is Burnt Umber,  I've used that for the center of the greenery.  

I also decided to use a Salmon colored bow for non traditional Christmas colors, making it 'uniquely' colored. 

The pretty eyelet edge on the oval shape was done using Gina Marie's Petite Looped Lace Oval die.  The card base is a standard A2, covered with the coordinating olive patterned paper.  I stamped the sentiment 'Christmas Blessings' at the bottom.  Then I simply secured the image to the front of the card to complete the design.

Thank you for stopping by today to view my blog. I enjoy sharing my work with you and invite you to 'Follow' my blog and to visit my site - "Not Just Scraps' on Facebook - where you can purchase my cards.

    Pam: Your candy cane with pine greens is very festive and does have those unique non-traditional colors added in that make the card one of a kind! Thanks for linking to The Holly and The Ivy! --Becca S/DT

    Fantastic colouring Pam, I love the no-line technique you've used. I also like your interpretation of the "U" prompt... we have to be extra creative with some of the letters ;)
    The scalloped image panel is wonderful, what a great die cut. I also like the fabulous sentiment stamp you added.
    Cheers,
    Beccy
