Christmas Card Challenge 9.. Black & White + One other colour.

Good Morning Folks.  I hope you have all had a Good Week.  Aren't they flying by too.  This my card for the CCC and Challenge 9 was chosen by Karen P.  It has to be Black & White and one other colour,  in my case I have chosen Gold.   My card is white, to that I matted a piece of Black linen card,  then put a piece of white card through a couple of embossing folders.  the bottom edge I used a MS punch.  I cut the gold card with SB Enchanted Labels 4 and used the centre die. The sentiment was embossed with gold as was the edges before adding it on to the finished card.  Notice, there is no bows.    Enjoy your Day whatever you do and I'll be back soon.   Hugs Rita xxxx

Now you have gone and used the "C" word! I know it's never too early but I just can't face that just yet!

Beautiful card Rita, simple but very effective.
Like Glenda I find it very difficult to see "c" cards at this time of year.
Hope the ankle is a little easier.
Have a great week

Ooooh I love the gold on the black and white - scrumptious! Brilliant choice of dies as well - just right for the sentiment in the middle - they really make this stand out. I had a giggle at your comment about there being no bows - that's like Sue J (Olliesmam) not using blobs!

Hugs to you Sue Pxxx
