It is Friday and that means it's time for a new color challenge at Color Me Beautiful. I REALLY love these colors (must be the coffee junkie in me) and had a card in mind shortly after putting the papers together. I saw a really pretty card on pinterest using the woodgrain folder and the coredinations paper and really wanted to pull that element. That card also had a pine tree branch, but since there is no green in this week's challenge palette, I decided to change things up a little bit!! So here are the wonderful inspiration photo and color palette...
and here are my 'Country Christmas' cards...
At first glance, they appear to be the same, but I left the pearls off of one and only sprayed the ornaments with the smooch spray on that one. I can't decide which version I like better!
There are so many possibilities with the wonderful earth tones. It amazed me how different all of the fabulous design team cards were! I hope you find a little inspiration and I hope to see your creations linked up at the challenge blog!

Have a fabulous weekend and happy crafting!!
These cards look so good with the ornaments against the lovely grainy wood. The Earth tones look fresh and different.
