White and Gold

Hello ... I hope you've had a good start to the week

Normally I would be posting for Papercraft Star ... but as you may have noticed, Papercraft Star has decided to close it's doors ... at least for now.

As I usually do all my DT work in advance I already had my card for this week ... white and gold


I kept it pretty simple with some pine stem Memory Box die cuts 


 Gold is not really my colour ... I find it hard to use without it looking too gaudy, hence I mixed it up with some white glittered pine stems and cones ...
And I embossed the card first with a tree embossing folder ... not sure you can see that


Can you believe that this time next week it will be Christmas Day!
Only 7 more sleeps!

Have a great day and stay safe

Love the sweet Christmas card, it is beautiful too.
7 days!!! wow, I haven't even take my tree out, I have been in the down mood and didn't do much this year, I missed the advent candles, which I do for the 20 years, and now I even too lazy to take the tree out from the garage, sigh.....

Well, I'm sorry to hear that bit of news, Ros. In taking the PS name off my sidebar this morning, I thought I would check some of the other challenge blogs. Would you believe there were several others that have quit also. Your card would have been the highlight of the DT projects today! This is gorgeous... LOVE the pine spray... beautiful!!!!
Have a wonderful day, my friend!

Ros, this is a stunning design and your execution is flawless!! I love the way you have interspersed the gold with the white, makes it so elegant and not the least bit gaudy!!

If I don't get a chance to visit again before Christmas, I want to wish you the very happiest of holidays and thank you for your friendship and support!! Hugs, Darnell
