PPA118 – Color Challenge
And what a challenge it is! The Pals always dish up something to get us out of our comfort zone. I love browns, but for Christmas projects? Of course I had to give it a whirl.
What do you think?

I've had the "Hello, Doily" background stamp for several months now but just didn't take the time to work with it. While looking through a craft magazine, I found a tag that used a regular paper doily for the Christmas tree. Voila! My projects were born.
Am I crazy or does part of the doily motif look like a bulb from a string of tree lights? Hmmm….. what can I do with that?
