It's my turn to choose the challenge
and I chose...
I love the elegance of red and gold.
It's really hard to capture that with a camera though.
The red is really Cherry Cobbler but didn't want to photograph that way.
Here's another card with red and gold.
I did this with a Stamp Stack group last month.
I can't wait to see what you can come up with.
Addicted to Stamps is doing a
HOLIDAY CHALLENGE
and

ANYTHING GOES
Thanks for visiting.
Enjoy!

Both cards are so elegant and beautiful. I love how you added texture to the holly leaves on the first card.
I just love card 1's beautiful gold leaves on the red background. Card 2 is very pretty too!
