Gold and Silver Stars


I made this card for two challenges and it was finished days ago, and I've been trying to get a decent photo ever since.

At One Layer Christmas Card Challenge  the theme is 'stars', and I decided to combine this with the challenge at Shopping Our Stash , which is 'silver and gold'.

These stamps are by Sarah Hurley. I embossed the stars using a mix of silver and gold embossing powder, and the sentiment is embossed in gold. I just wish the subtle metallic mix would show up on the photo!

I'd also like to enter this for the anything goes challenge at Christmas Card Challenges .

One layer cards are so hard to do, I always find mine turning out looking bland. The layout is an important part, which you succeeded so well with here.
