Morning!! What a beautiful day it is in Southeastern PA! Wonderful crisp morning!
This card is for the TSC challenge where Wannabcre8tive (Shirley) asked us to make a Christmas card using the colors black, red and white with one other color. I kinda cheated cause I used silver glimmer paper and a bit of green. Shame, Shame!!! LOL!!! I'll put myself in the Time Out chair when I'm done typing this!!!! ;D
Please feel free to join us for this awesome challenge. Just put TSC1005 in your keywords!

Outstanding Leslie. I just love how that white tree stands out against the black cardstock. The silver glittery background makes this pretty Christmas card so festive.

Lesley this is beautiful! First I love the tree done in white against the black and the glimmer paper just added a touch of elegance to this. Then the texture on the red just adds to all the beauty. A very lovely card.

No time out chair for you, Sissy - this is awesome with the silver tree on the layers of white and glitter silver paper - wow, you did so much - the embossing on the red and the polka dotted ribbon are real eye catchers, and the sweet brads on the punched corners - this is DE-LISH!!

I cheated with a little silver on my card too. It was hard to resist. Love your card. Nice contrast with the white tree on the black. Makes that tree really stand out.
