Jingle Belles 41


Our theme this week - "I'm Dreaming of a Pink Christmas" (and a cure) - yes this challenge is hand-in-hand with Breast Cancer Awareness month.  Our cards should have some pink in them - a non-traditional color for Christmas, but I love it. 

The Medallion was stamped in VersaMark and then embossed with Whte EP.   I then took a sponge and sponged on some Regal Rose from the center outward and then Rose Red at the edges of the paper.  The trees from Patterned Pines were stamped in Regal Rose and in Wild Wasabi and cut out.  I torn some Whisper White cs for the hills and added the trees.  The pink ones in the background were completely glued down but the green ones in front were only glued at the bases so the tops come forward a little.  I added some glitter pen to the torn edge of the white cs.  The greeting from Four the Holidays was stamped in Rose Red using my stamp-a-ma-jig for placement.  The final touch was to add the whole thing to a base of Rose Red.

I'll be adding this to Pink Saturday.  You can follow the Jingle Belles contributions here.
