I wanted to share one of my Christmas Cards from the weekends Christmas Card Stack - 5 different Christmas cards using the Bazzill Monochromatic Purples. It was a challenge - more from the stamp perspective of which to use - but fun!

I wanted to try out our new VersaMark Dazzle pads - so I reached for Frost. It is the cool version while Champagne is more of a warm tone to it. They look great on dark to medium tone cardstock and the purples were perfect! You can't see the shimmer in these pics - but they are fabulous. For the snowflake in the square I stamped onto white and it was not visible enough - so I reached for my chalks and tapped a little purple chalk from the Jewel tone chalk set and it popped the image right up! Nice to know the dazzle pads work for chalk popping too.
The kids are outside playing - it is SO nice outside and I am having to force them out - pitiful!
Great card! Did you use the scor-bug across the top?
