For today's color challenge I decided to go for dessert of ornaments even though I don't make my Christmas cards. I send out JCPenney portraits cards with pictures of my two boys.
My nephew's high school Christmas concert is coming up and they always have a basket raffle, so I will be donating a basket of cards. This card will find a home in that basket.
I started by embossing the gold "enjoy" and punching out three circles and embossing those in gold as well. Next I embossed the red sentiment and stamped, embossed, and fussy cut the red parts of the ornaments. This was a one layer card, but after I assembled the card and drew the gold string to hang the ornaments, I decided I needed to cut it out and mount it to make it at least a two layer card. I think my problem is the wrinkles that I get when I shoot it with my heat gun. Any advice for that issue?

Wonderful card. How nice of you to donate cards! I like how you used an ornament as an "o" in the word "enjoy". Clever! Wonderful use of the colors. Nicely done! TFS
