The Reason!
I love traditional red and green for Christmas, but sometimes it is fun to use an unexpected color for a totally different look! The soft purple tones of this Cosmo Cricket Mitten Weather designer paper are a great alternative!
I kept the layout simple, and let this powerful sentiment speak for itself! A sheer ribbon and jute bow, and a lacy snowflake topped with a paper rose add some elegance. I love the symbolism...purple is the color of royalty, appropriate for the King of kings, the Rose of Sharon!
