Carol M is our Host at Just Us Girls
for Colour Week choosing traditional
Christmas colours of RED GREEN GOLD
I went in a traditional way with my Red Poinsettia but
you don't have to make a Christmas card
just use the colours.
My poinsettia flower is Spellbinders
coloured with Lindy's Cuckoo Clock Cardinal,
Cathedral Pines Green and Perfect Pearls Forever Red,
adding a gold pearl to the centre.
Background foliage - Tim's Holiday Greens
in red, green and gold.
Added ribbon to white background
and onto gold paper.
This was popped onto white card base
with gold heat embossed sentiment.
Head over to the Gallery to see
the beautiful coloured cards
our Guest Karren and my
oh so talented Team mates created.
I am sure you will want to add yours.
If you are our 'Chic of the Week'
you could be chosen to be our Guest in the New Year.
