March Color Challenge

Hello there!  It's Patricia, your challenge hostess for the month of March.  In the United States, it's "Spring Forward" weekend for the places that observe Daylight Savings Time.  It hasn't felt much like Spring yet where I live in Virginia; we received about 5 inches of snow on top of some sleet on Monday.  But no matter what the weather is like, it's always Christmas time here at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown.

Since it's the second Saturday of the month, we're presenting a color challenge for this week.  Pick three or more of the colors from this graphic to use in your Christmas or wintry card:

 

You may also use white, cream, gold, silver, or black as neutrals for your card base, as embellishments, or as ink colors for outline images or sentiments.  However, the colors from the graphic should be the main colors used on your card.

We have a very vintage card from our March Guest Design Team member, Scraplady!
Here's her take on our colors:


Here is some more inspiration from the Design Team:

*We'd really appreciate it if you'd turn off word verification so that we can comment more easily! We know a lot of you do this for safety, but it takes a very long time to comment when verification is activated, and you might not receive comments from us... just sayin'. ;)
