Love & Joy Noel - Stampin' Up!® Welcome Noel

 I'm so excited to be joining the Color Hues Challenge as a guest designer today!  They have a super talented Design Team and I love seeing what they come up with for each challenge and I'm always inspired.  Thanks for having me!!

 I love purple so I was excited to see this combo!  I decided to do a Christmas card using the Neutral Noel Suite.  The little purple village is a fun look for Christmas I think!

 I embossed the Very Vanilla background panel with the Softly Woven embossing folder for a nice bit of texture.  The greenery is Mossy Meadow and makes a nice big oval frame for the sentiment and buildings.

  A tiny bit of yellow is blended on the windows for a nice golden glow.  I just used whatever was left on the blending brush so I can't even say which yellow.  I'm considering the yellow a neutral here, it's like a version of the Very Vanilla lol!  I used both Gorgeous Grape and Highland Heather for the buildings.  Two-Toned Mossy Meadow cardstock  for a slightly lighter look for the garland and the wreath. 

  I cut berries out of both purples and covered them with clear Wink of Stella.  They are then grouped around the wreath adding in some Gold Dots for a bit of shine.

  Thanks for having me Color Hues; it was a fun combo to work with!  

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?

All of the current products used to make this card can be purchased in my ONLINE STORE.
