Hello everyone.  Today is another Stamp Off Challenge with Buffy, Jackie and me.  This time our challenge was to make a Christmas card using non-traditional colors.  I decided to go with Smoky Slate and Flirty Flamingo.  That is about as non-traditional as you can do!

To make this card, I used the stamp set called So Many Stars along with the matching dies called Stitched Stars.  Remember, you can save 10% until the end of this month if you buy this set in a Bundle.  I know the star dies are carrying over but the stamp set is not so if you like it, now is the time to purchase it.  I also used the die set called Stitched Rectangles and another called Merry Christmas.  This is where the big “Merry” came from.

I first took a piece of Flirty Flamingo Designer Series Paper from the Brights 6″ x 6″ collection and layered it on top of a card base of Smoky Slate.  Then I cut out the frame using the Stitched Rectangles Dies and adhered a piece of Whisper White cardstock in the middle.  I stamped the star and cut it out using the Stitched Stars Dies along with all the other stars.  I cut the sentiment from Smoky Slate cardstock and put it all together.

Now let’s go see what non-traditional colors Buffy and Jackie used.  Using different colors was fun!
