A big thanks to Laura Jane who introduced me to Inspired by All the Little Things challenge blog page!
Here is my entry for challenge #71, Red/Black/White:
I like creating non-traditional color Christmas cards and this color combo fits the bill. I am a little obsessed with the Simon Says Stamp Ornate Background and so decided to use it again. Here I heat embossed the image with white embossing powder on to a black card base. I used my Prismacolor pencils to add a few pops of red, which really stand out. If you look close you will see silver Nuvo Drops I placed throughout the image for subtle bling.
The beautiful Rejoice! die cut is from the Simon Says Stamp Making Spirits Bright collection; I cut this out of silver mirror card from Tonic Studios.
Finally, I added this beautiful sentiment by Stamp Simply.
