Dynamic Duos #27!

I'm very excited to announce that I am on the design team for the Dynamic Duos colour challenge blog!  If you're new to Dynamic Duos, there is a new challenge on the blog every Saturday, featuring two colours that you can use on their own, or pair them up with neutrals (cream, white, kraft, black, greys etc.).  This week we have a classic Christmas combo of Raspberry Ripple & Gumball Green, and I chose to do a 5 1/2" square card with a bit of sponging to give it a bit of a homespun look:
*Remember that if you don't have the exact colours shown, use something similar!
Be sure to visit the Dynamic Duos blog to check out what the rest of the design team has come up with (list of blogs is on my sidebar).
Patterned papers are Handmade Holiday by Simple Stories; Cardstock is Kraft, New England Ivy & Colonial White, CTMH; Stamp sets are Glad Tidings by Verve & Holiday by CTMH; Inks are Olive, Cranberry, Cashmere & Desert Sand, CTMH; Mocha Opaque pearls, CTMH; Snowflake dies, Verve.

    Homespun is right, and did you ever hit it out of the park. The stitching is such the perfect little detail! So excited to be on the team with you!
