Hello my friends,
I haven't had much time this weekend to craft but I just had a little browse around blog land and saw a few challenges that inspired me to make this card:
First off the 'green and gold' challenge at Less is More immediately made me think of Christmas. This led me to look up this week's Muse: Christmas Visions challenge. Kimberly is the Muse this week and her gold embossed card gave me the idea for my card. I went with a wreath instead of tress but did hunt out a sentiment that was the same. I felt the sentiment needed a little extra so added a gold embossed holly.
It was hard to keep it all gold and green but that was the challenge at Less is More so challenged I was!
I will also enter this into the 'Holly' challenge at Happy Little Stamper Christmas Challenge
I will also enter into the 'spectacular embossing' challenge at AAA cards
Lovely gold wreath and holly! What a wonderful trifecta of challenges!! Way to go Sandie! So clean and simply lovely! Thanks for joining us at MUSE Christmas Visions! So grateful that you were inspired to join us this week!
