Non-Traditional Colors

Today's card is inspired by Jenn.  I wanted to use some non-traditional colors and see how it would look.  This is what mine turned out like.  I used Not Quite Navy, Crumb Cake and Certainly Celery.  What do you think?  I thought this turned out rather well, considering I basically took Not Quite Navy and held it up to my cardstock collection until I landed on a color that I thought would work.  That is what I love about Stampin' Up! products.  Just about any color combination will work, they all just coordinate beautifully.

Anyways, the ornament I used here is from Tags 'til Christmas set.  I punched it out using the Ornament punch.  What did I tell you before?  I LOVE using coordinated punches and framelits with our stamps!

The last little touch I did was using Color Spritzer Tool to add some splotches of color behind the sentiment.

Oh oh oh!  Forgot to mention, I don't own any First Edition DSP that the original card used.  So I went to my trusty MDS and printed out a small piece.  Isn't that brilliant?  MDS2 is still on sale at 50% off today.  If you don't own it yet, get it!  It will be one of the best things you spend your money on this season!
