Here's my card for this week's ColorQ challenge - cQc52. This week was a sketch challenge with any past color combination. I chose cQc18 - Mambo Melon, Baja Breeze, Old Olive and So Saffron. I really like this combo for a nontraditional Christmas card. The bright, cheery colors are fun and retro! The ornament is from the Tags til Christmas stamp set. The sentiment is from the wheel Jolly Jingles. I rarely buy wheels but I saw a great tip on Splitcoast. I took the stamp off the wheel, mounted it on some EZ Mount cling foam and then cut the words apart. I got 15 Christmas greetings for $8.50! And it was surprisingly easy to cut apart. Love this! I embossed the mat behind the ornament with the Petals a Plenty folder. The DSP is Candy Cane Christmas from the Holiday mini. I added some ruffled ribbon and a Glimmer brad. Thanks for stopping by!

This is so PRETTY! LOVE the ornament but most of all the ribbon treatment with the sentiment!
What a lovely card, Krista! Thanks for playing the CQC! this week.
Wow, what a great idea for the wheel.....although I think my customers would probably faint if they saw what I did!!! Maybe after it retires!! Anyway, cute card, I love the corners punched the way you did!!!
So pretty, love the bright and cheery colors!
