Hi Stampers,  today for our hop we have a color challenge for you.  The colors are Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake and Early Espresso.  Using the Night Before Christmas DSP was a good choice because all of these colors are in the paper.  I let the paper do all the work on my card which made it super quick to put together.  Just change up the paper for a completely different look.
