February Colour Challenge

 

Hi, I’m AndrejaM, and I’m delighted to be hosting the second challenge of this month at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown.

Our second challenge of the month is a colour challenge. For this one, we invite you to create a festive Christmas card using only black and gold.

Black cardstock offers a beautiful base, especially when you bring it to life with light and dimension. Techniques such as texture embossing with embossing folders or heat embossing using clear embossing powder are perfect ways to add shine, depth, and festive elegance.

Our guest designer this week is:

Trina

Here is some inspiration from the Design Team:
