Say it in... Chocolate and Orange

Yummy, doesn't this sound great chocolate and orange. That is the colour combination for this week's Annabelle Stamps Blog Challenge. Most of us took it one step further and decided to stretch the imagination to Christmas cards in Choc and orange.
Here is mine... it is also the spotlighted card this week.
 The idea for this card from my Secret Sister group, last month we had to make a nine panel square card.
I simply stamped the holly branches all over the light orange card then cut it into 1" scalloped squares, I then mounted them on the various brown and the darker orange layers.
This (I have said so many times) is my favourite Christmas stamp set, You can do so much with it.
Here is the set  called Holly branch and a few cards I have made previously with it.
You can buy the set Here at Annabelle Stamps
