52CCCT August Color Challenge
The color challenge at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown for this month is Red &
Metallic Gold. I don't know about you but only using 2 colors is quite a
challenge for me. But I thought I would give it a try.
Here's what I came up with -
Although we are able to use black or white with the red and gold, I opted not to, well
except for the black Merry Christmas sticker. I embossed the 3 panels with a
Cuttlebug border embossing folder. I thought a little texture would be better than
just the flat red. Used one of my favorite border punches from EK Success and
the Spellbinders Picot Edge Circle die and Poinsettia die. I added some jewell
border dazzles and regular jewell dazzles to finish it off. I think it turned out okay!?!
I'm also entering this card in the Holiday Card Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.
