February Color Challenge

Hello! Hope wherever you might be you are staying warm and cozy this weekend.  Seems as if we have storms and snow from one end of the United States all the way to the other.  A perfect time to craft and stay out of the cold and off the icy roads - wouldn't you agree?  And if you are in that part of the world that is experiencing the other end of the temperature spectrum - hope you are staying in and cool. Whatever your weather, making Christmas cards is always a perfect excuse for crafting :o).

You really rocked our sketch challenge last week - check back on Wednesday when we announce our winners.

On to the new challenge this week.  Our February hostess, Jacqueline, has chosen a really fun mix of colors to challenge you.
Here are the colors~

Please note that you must use the yellow (gold) in addition to the 3 other colors of your choice. 

Once again our DT has made some gorgeous creations to share with you. 
Take a look:
