This or That Thursday Snowy Wonder

 Once a month Gill and I host a card and a cuppa event at a local cafe. Last Monday was one such event. We both make a smaple and people come along and make one of the cards, have a drink and lots of chatting and laughs.  It's  a fun way to spend a Monday morning for sure! Well this week I created a sample that the attendees could make using the fun Snowy Wonder and just 1 colour plus white.

For my sample I used a lovely navy blue.  This monochromatic palette is very attractive don't you agree?

To add depth and to the card use both 1st and 2nd generation stamping. This fun easy technique makes the most of your ink pads! All you do is ink the stamp once then stamp not just once but twice and even three times with our relinking the stamp! 
The effect of the navy and white colour palette is very elegant. The design is a little more contemporary but still elegant.
I liked the design of the card so much that I decided to recreate it but using a far more contemporary Christmas colour pallette.. pink!

I think the pink version is fun and will appeal to all ages for sure. The design is the same and the generational stamping is the same but it has a much warmer feel don't you think?
But which do you prefer?  This with it's elegant navy colour palette? Or That with it's fun pink colour palette?
