Morning everyone :o)
I'm here with my DT card for Passion For Promarkers, where our new challenge is 'bee happy' (yellow & black)... you can use bees too, but you don't have to. We're sponsored by Joanna Sheen who is providing our winner with a £10 voucher for her fab online store.
I thought I'd try and make the yellow & black theme work for a Christmas card... not exactly traditional but I think I quite like it!

Super cute card Lisa - and such a different image from what I would have chosen with this colour scheme - but it works so well! Thanks for the inspiration! Hugs xx
Ooh that is just gorgeous! Never would've thought of the colour scheme for Christmas cards - but it really works!
Your swirl is fab too - I've got that and the blooming thing just won't cut properly on my CB (might be because the plates look like bananas!) and then I fight to get it stuck down.
Know just what you mean about surfing - I'm doing it right now!!!

It TOTALLY works and is so refreshingly different. LOVE it :)
What a fab idea to incorporate yellow on a Christmas card Lisa, it's very unusual, which makes it all the more innovating! Stands out beautifully against the powerful black! Big hugs, Ira xox
