Didn't think I'd get a challenge card in today, but squeezed this quick one in between loads of laundry! Did a split card with some red ribbon down the center; then I punched 3 ornaments from pattern pack dp, punched just the top of the ornament in brushed gold then attached the gold cord between the layers. Embossed the sentiment and added a button, ribbon bow and it was good to go!

Such elegance. Don't you just love today's colors? No stress at all. Just make a great holiday card like this and you are done. Love your trio of ornaments.

So pretty! I love the gold embossed sentiment and the great gold cord. Your ornaments look amazing hanging against that pretty background you created!! Nice job with the challenge colors.

Cute, cute, cute...love how you made the top of the ornament gold, too. Those split cards are my fav....helps me "s-t-r-e-t-c-h" that DSP to last even longer. Thanks for sharing!

I snuck a peek at this last night on my cell phone, and it was so cute -- but WOW it is super cute shown at a good real size. Great card! Great job with the challenge. It's fun that the challenge was built around the dsp and that is what you ended up using! Blessings, Lela
