Christmas AND Birthday cards - Color Throwdown #669

~

This week for the Color Throwdown challenge we have a beautiful, bold color combo:  Navy, Gold, and White.

~

~

Now this is just perfect for an elegant Christmas card, right?  So I made one!

~

~

This card was an experimentation using some Liquid Metal (in Pale Gold) by Paper Fashion. I picked it up in the clearance aisle in Tuesday Morning and had never used it before.  I think it really highlighted the tree and beautiful scripty die!

I'm entering this card in the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge: Trees.

~

~

But then...I also needed a birthday card, so I used some of the same products and the same overall layout/design for one.

~

~

The background stamp was heat embossed in gold, and I used 3 layers to make the happy birthday die cut pop!

~

Now it's time to check out what the rest of the CTD team created, and then for you to create your entry for the challenge!

You have a Tuesday Morning? Lucky Girl! The one here left😢. Love the color scheme. And it’s a total deal, a “ twofer”. You absolutely rocked the colors and I am in gold heaven. That Liquid Metal is very classy. Like the star on top of your tree. Cool concentric circle doodle. You have me layering my die cut pieces now. I do pay attention and what you share is most useful. Keep inspiring me!
