Pink Christmas?

Ok ... so Jingle Belles Rock challenge this week is a colour challenge ... Pink ... "PINK" and green ... here 'ya go ...


Bet you thought you had me on this one girls! Heck I thought you had me on this one!!! 
Me? do a 'double' pink Christmas card ... huh??**!!**
But not one to quit (yet) ... I rummaged through my enormous stash that is somehow filed in a wardrobe of my brain and knew I had the supplies to make something ... just needed to find the earthly wardrobe ...  
and here it is ... my attempt


Now you ... like me ... may be asking where on earth I got that florescent pink reindeer from ... blowed if I know ... I can but assume that I saved it in the hope that 2 ladies would come along and create a blog called Jingle Belles Rock and set a challenge to make a Christmas card using green, light pink and dark pink ... (us Capricorns are very organised didn't you know ...)


... and prone to jumping out of the box every now and then ... 


AND I know exactly who to send this too ... I got the cutest prettiest card from a friend last Christmas ... apart from the pretty snowflake charm ... it didn't really say "Christmas"


See? ... so I reckon she's up for pink ... don't you?

Have a lovely day

well for somebody who didn't think she could *DO* a doubly pink christmas card, you sure made an AMAZINGLY FABULOUS doubly pink christmas card, missus!

i love everything about this... especially (but not limited to) the "flourescent" pink reindeer...who, btw, prefers to be thought of as "exuberantly blushing"! (& he's AWESOME, so we'll be happy to do that, right?!) i absolutely LOVE THIS, ros!!! :)

Holy cow!! Your reindeer is the bomb!!!! What a fabulously pretty card! Love everythng about it. And I want to steal your reindeer. So there. ;)

You have a marvelous sense of humor, great post and an even cuter card! You must have somehow had a sixth sense that the JB blog would be arriving and you needed that reindeer (I have a Capricorn sister and YES, you guys are organized!)

Great way to incorporate the challenge colors marvelously!

Dawn said...

FABULOUS!!! I love that pink reindeer! You were meant to have it in your stash ;) Beautiful work!

Lorraine said...

I'd say you had the perfect little touched stashed away just for this project. So glad you could locate it - know how that is! Wonderfully done.
