Christmas Card Club Challenge #5 - Off The Wall/Non Traditional

Hi Crafters,

It's a bright, Sunny morning here in Norfolk, a promise of what's to come.
An hour later
(well that was short lived....the promise of what was to come was...RAIN!)

Our Zoe has chosen a theme of 

OFF THE WALL/NON TRADITIONAL

This made me scratch my head a little but eventually I came up with a card that was somewhat quirky for Christmas.

Although it still has a Christmas tree the colours are not usual for Christmas. I bought this Britannia Christmas Tree die a long time ago with great expectations from it but each time I use it I find I don't like the result, but maybe that's just me.

As You Like It Challenge #69 Favourite Traditional or Non-Traditional Colours and WHY

Hi Crafters,

This fortnights challenge is to showcase a card or project using your Favourite Traditional or Non-Traditional colours for Christmas and WHY over at the As You Like It challenge blog.
Please remember to explain WHY to qualify for the prize.

I love the red and green of the traditional Christmas cards but I very much like to change it up a bit with my own cards and use non-traditional colours like pink and white or mint and silver as in the case of my card for today.
