I kept the same layout but changed the gold to silver, used a Sizxlit ornament die cut and used circle nesties. No bows.
Boy, is it ever hard to photograph shiny silver! WOW! I cut out the ornament and then ran though the CB using the swirl ef. I mounted onto white and shiny silver cs. (The Silver cs was a RAK from my friend, Peggy [MarilynPrestonn]). Thanks so very much, Peggy. I have been hoarding this.....not wanting to use it because it is so beautiful!!!!
The next white panel was run through the CB using the ornament ef. I mounted that only shiny silver cs. I added ribbon with a tiny silver thread through it and added square shiny silver brads turned on their sides to make diamond shapes.
No stamping on this one.
What do you think?

Lesley, it's always difficult to photograph a metallic paper, but I think it looks totally fabulous in your photo. Beautiful card and so beauitfully cased.

You did a great job with this case!! I like how you turned the gold into silver. Your ornament is so pretty. Great bow tied on your ornament; I have so much trouble with that.
