Lacy Christmas tree card

Well I have just spent a couple of hours cleaning the kitchen so there is not a crumb any where so I thought I deserved a little craft time. Here is another card for the CBC Christmas challenge a day; day two. The challenge is to use colours red, green and gold.

Here I have had a wee play with some gold webbing spray. It actually looks great on darker colours but it isn’t too bad on pale green.

Ink: colorbox chalk ink lime pastel
Paper: stampin up summer picnic
Embossing folder: cutlebug Lace Christmas tree (run through a wizard)
Krylon gold webbing spray
gold/green coloured gems
gold star
