CSF Saturday Blog Hop - Black & Gold Christmas

Today's Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop theme is Black & Gold Christmas, a truly non-traditional, modern and elegant look. Luckily, the Modern Christmas Specialty DSP has lots of black and gold patterns, so this card was easy to design!

I started with gold foil and used the largest Textured Notes die to cut it. Then I measured just inside the decorative edge to cut a piece of DSP to fit. (Measurements below.)

A gold foil tree was cut using the Pine Tree Trimmings die and embossed with the Lovely Stripes embossing folder that's coming in January. The sentiment is found in the Greetings For You Mix & Match Ephemera Pack, which just happens to be on the Last Chance list. It's fabulous for quick cards because the greetings are already die cut AND have an adhesive back! It's out of stock right now, but supposed to be back in stock the week of Dec. 15. Grab it while you can for next year's cards!
