Greetings! I’ve got a Christmas card that has non-traditional colors on it. I went with pinky purples and shades of teal, and I think it turned out really festive even though there’s no red or green in sight. I used the My Monthly Super Hero Kit for November 2026 from Hero Arts to make it.

Using some Blush Cardstock from Spellbinders (included in the kit), I started by stamping the solid candy cane all over the background with Pixie Dust Ink from Catherine Pooler. Then I stamped the stripe layer with Flirty Fuchsia. Next, I added the snowflakes with All That Jazz, also from Catherine Pooler.
Then I die cut my “jolly” using similar colors to what I used on my background. But the background was too busy for my to mount the large sentiment directly on top, so I cut some strips of coordinating colored cardstock and adhered them at an angle. Now my sentiment stood out nicely. I added my sub sentiment with Twilight VersaFine Clair Ink. Last I added a few Crystal Iris Wild Orchid Card Bling from A Colorful Life Designs.
As much as I enjoy using traditional colors for Christmas cards, I also really love to make them with non-traditional colors. Please visit Hero Arts to see all of the latest releases and to get all of the info on both of the My Monthly Hero Kits. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!
Thank you so much for your kind words!
