Here is another Christmas themed card as I continue to create for Christmas in July. I am never sure about creating Christmas cards without timeless (traditional) Christmas colors. Today’s card proved to me that even when you use trendy colors, cards can still have that Christmas look. The elements of today’s card (or any card for that matter) can make the card a success. I love the look of the Opal Rounds because they look a lot like what a real mistletoe looks like (I googled a picture of a real mistletoe)๐ to get my inspiration.
