Christmas Red and Green

 These cards were made for this fortnight's challenge 'Christmas/Red and Green' at Incy Wincy Design's Challenge.  We have two sponsors this fortnight, The Paper Shelter (celebrating their 10th birthday) and Fabrika Fantasy.


For my first card I used an image from Fabrika Fantasy called Winter Fairy.  I used red flowers, a feather, a bow and green flowers.  I colored her in greens.




For my second card I used an image from The Paper Shelter called What Did I Get?.  For this card I used some glitter paper to make red snowflakes (using dies), I added some pearls to the center of the snowflakes and on the lower bottom of the card.  I also added a bow.

Thanks for looking!
