This week the fine folk at Merry Monday are asking for a Christmas card featuring purple, white, and silver. Now I'm partial to purple and blue winter and/or Christmas cards, but purple, white, and silver?! I wasn't sure I could pull it off. But I did.
I started with one of my favorite images to do in purples and blues, added a fabulous shiny silver frame and some lightly textured slightly metallic purple background paper and my card was born. My original plan called for a silver ribbon tied around the bottom but in the meantime I ran across this sparkly purple ribbon tape.
The Fine Print: Image by A Muse Artstamps, dies by Spellbinders, ribbon tape by CTMH, and background paper from my generous friend.

A super sweet image and I love your silver frame, the purple glitter ribbon and all the wonderful shades of purple on your card! Thanks for sharing with us at Merry Monday!
Subtle and elegant - those colours are really cool for Christmas. Love the cutie in her winter coat.
