What's black and white and red all over???

No, it's not a newspaper, it's a couple of Christmas cards I made this weekend. I saw a challenge on someone's blog (sorry, I lost track of whose in all my blog hopping) to make Christmas cards that are just black and white. Well, some of these are masterpieces, gorgeous. So I decided to make a couple too, but I added just a splash of color. The first one I used 7 Gypsies paper and Imaginisce Pointsettias and Thicker letters that were painted and dipped in glitter.


The second one is Doodlebug embossed and polka dot papers and May Arts ribbon and an old vellum sticker from my stash. Hope you like them, it sure does feel good to be a little creative again.
