PTI October Blog Hop

Hello and welcome!  Today is the Papertrey Ink October Blog Hop.  This month's blog hop challenge has to do with using non-traditional colors to create a holiday card or project.  Several color combinations and inspiration photos were given but I chose the photo and colors below to create my card.
I kept my card CAS and after looking at the inspiration photo above I knew I wanted to try and do something with circles. I searched through my PTI sets and found two sets that had circles I could stamp along with a snowflake image from the Tremendous Treats Christmas set.  I stamped my circles, then the snowflakes and added glitter to them then used a marker to create a frame around my white panel.  Next I stamped my sentiment and added my die-cut "holiday" and then tied on some bakers twine.  The white and turquoise panels where then popped up using foam tape and attached to the pink card base.
Supplies: Wonderful Words Holiday + dies, Hello Sunshine (large stamped circle), Daydreamer (small stamped circle), Tremendous Treats Christmas (snowflake), Glitter, Bakers twine, Marker, Foam tape.
 
Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the hop!

I like the way you've layered the circles and snowflake stamped images on your card front.The holiday die cut really takes center stage. Great interpretation of the colour challenge!
