I made the 5 shown here in less than an hour as thats all the time i had today.I stamped and embossed in gold directly on to a card black... no matting or layering..... nothing.
I added just red to holly berries.... on all the cards..... and minimal colour to all the images....
i really needed quick, simple, but elegant...in a hurry and these are them!I'm sorry but i doubt i'll inspire any of you jolly bloggers/hoppers today, but i'll try to do better for saturday.

Hello Lyn. These are so very different for you, and they are just fabulous my friend. I love them all. The gold is very effective and with the minimal colour, they stand out perfectly. Happy crafting.

These are beautiful! You are inspiring no matter the style. Most of us need to make the more traditional cards too :) I like the gold embossing with the touch of red, fab idea. I may have to break out my embossing powder to get my cards done.
