Hello again! This is my second post for today so please scroll down to see my first one.
I’m just popping in for a quick post before family movie time. I love the theme as CAS-ual Fridays this week…Back in Black. This card is actually my second attempt for this challenge. The first one is below, but after finishing, I felt it was just too busy, alas, another attempt.
The base is a beautiful black shimmery cardstock that I embossed with a Cuttlebug border embossing folder and then scored on the top and bottom of the embossing. The square is a copper metallic cardstock punched with a Martha Stewart Stamp Anywhere punch and then punched the corners punched with a ticket punch. The sentiment is Spellbinders stamped with a Rubber Stamp Tapestry sentiment and bordered with an Inspired by Stamping stamp. The leaves are punched out and colored with a Gel Pen. The flower is from AC Moore.
This was the first card I made using the Black Magic technique. I love the card, but for the challenge, I thought the stamp was too busy. The reindeer is from AC Moore and NOEL is from Rubber Stamp Tapestry. The ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

Both cards are stunning Ellen but I thin for the challenge I prefer the first one. I love this less is more type card, only wish I could do it - I end up putting everything but the kitchen sink on mine! LOL. Seriously though, the first card is so striking...A x
