Not one but a collection of 4 cards, I've picked this picture as the pink and green are my favourite. 

#5 PJ

The red and white make a very smart, modern looking card but fun too.

So pretty in these soft colours. You can't go wrong with an inky background.

Such beautiful colours against that gorgeous embossed swirly background.

July - Colours

Hello, it's Alison here bringing your our new challenge. I think you'll have lots of fun with it. We'd like to see Rainbow colours.

What is more colourful than Christmas? Lights, trees, presents all wrapped up, not to mention food - there is so much choice. 

We'd like to see at least 5 colours but of course you can go all out and use the rainbow if you'd like to. 

Have a look at what the design team were inspired to make. Do pay them a visit and leave a comment to show you've been, I'm sure they would appreciate it.

June - Theme

Hello!  It's time for our second challenge of the month of June.  This time we're looking for Christmas or wintry cards featuring nutcrackers and/or toy soldiers.  Since many of the nutcrackers one sees around Christmastime are made to look like soldiers, we thought we'd combine the two ideas into one theme challenge.

For inspiration, check out what the CCT design team has made:
