Well I was going for elegant but I'm not sure if I achieved it! And I missed the challenge that was asking for elegance anyway lol...
A5 card blank made from ivory linen card. I've used a cuttlebug embossing folder on pearlised paper for the tree - I've had this embossing folder for about a year I think, and this is it's first outing! One of those things I just had to have... Red ribbed paper and gold cardstock from my stash, sentiment from Craftwork Cards, red pearls from stash. I wonder if it needs something more - what does it need though?
I'm entering my card for the following challenges:
- Allsorts - gold & cream with a hint of red
- Fab n Funky - clean & simple (2nd entry, hope that's ok)
- Creative Cottage - embossing
