Pink Christmas

For this week's card I made a Christmas card using non traditional colours. I used pink, kind of a breast cancer awareness Christmas card. I really like this image called light of beatitude by Ching chou kuik. and thought it would work beautifully (no pun intended) as this type of card, making the candles symbolize hope. A perfect card for a survivor. It's not really a Christmas image, but I think it works well as it anyway.

I must apologize though for the not so great images. I accidentally dropped my camera the other day and the display isn't working so I'm literally photographing in the dark. It so silly because I dropped it from a low chair and it was in it's padded cozy. I've been much rougher on it through the years, traveling with it a lot, but never really dropped it I guess. It must have bumped just in the wrong spot. Hopefully I can get it repaired as I can't live without it. It's so easy to use and loves me right back - such a chick camera :)

I have coloured the image with promarkers and added glitter glue to the wings. The leaves are punched out using a qk die. I added three red pearls to mimic some of the pattern on the background paper. I folded the corner on the left bottom to balance out the holly decoration. It's a quite simple card, but I think it's well balanced and interesting.
