March Color Challenge

Welcome to our March Color Challenge.

Since many people celebrate St. Patrick's day in March, I decided to choose Green and White for this challenge.  I am sure many people think of holly leaves and Christmas trees when considering green at Christmas.  Let's see if you can get a little creative and have some fun!


Gorgeous creations from our talented DT members

I do hope you will join us! For this technique challenge, we would like to see some stencilling on your festive card.



Your stencilling could be a background for your stamping or colouring, or it could be the main feature. We can't wait to see your Christmas or winter themed cards. Please read our guidelines carefully before submitting your stencilled creation. Happy crafting! April x

Here are the Design Team's lovely cards to inspire you:
