It
is Monday and that means we have a new Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge
for you, this week we would like you to Use Chocolate Brown, Green, Gold and White or Cream on your Christmas Card.
I
used a simple layout for my card, I heat embossed the sentiment in brown then
popped it up with foam tape. The top part of the card is a
DP that is almost like a sage green, the bottom is cream and gold. I tried
every angle to get that effect of the gold but the cameras (yes two of them)
just
would
not pick it up. I added a little bit of cream ribbon with gold trim and
finished with some brown pearls.
Stop
by the Merry Monday Christmas
Card Challenge blog to see all the wonderful creations
by my fellow Merry Makes and we would love for you to play along.
Supplies: Cream and brown card stock, Designer Paper-Kaiser Craft, Christmas Calligraphy, ribbon and pearls.
Cheers,
Nina
I can see a bit of the gold shine in this photo! That wonderful sentiment really takes the stage!
ReplyDeleteI love the richness of the paper you chose and the sentiment matches it perfectly! Your card is subtle and shows all the colours in a soft and elegant way.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty card with the focus on that collage of sentiments!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty card, Nina! Love the sentiment and the patterned papers you used! Perfect!
ReplyDeleteA lovely card, Nina. Those patterns all compliment each other so well in that simple layout :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, Nina....a great layout too. I always reverse that layout but I am liking it with the smaller panel at the bottom!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, elegant card! I love this!
ReplyDeleteNina, this is SO elegant and beautiful - LOVE, LOVE the sentiment!!
ReplyDeleteI think I say this for every card you make Nina...I just love the subtle colours you use. The sentiment panel is wonderful on the gorgeous DP's and the wee bow is such a lovely touch.
ReplyDeleteHi Sis,

ReplyDeleteI agree that the gold is always hard to capture. Love the way you displayed the sentiment!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, Nina! The sentiment is just gorgeous - I have a fondness for calligraphy!
ReplyDeleteNina, your card is gorgeous. Would you mind telling me the name of the stamp company that did the beautiful Christmas calligraphy stamp?
ReplyDeleteThanks very much.

ReplyDeleteDeanne :)
This is a very beautiful and elegant card!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great card. I tend to shy away from those repeating multi-word stamps but I see how they make a great focal point. The colors and patterns in your card are fab!
