Christmas Card Club "Stars"

Good morning all.

Gosh where are the weeks going to...another two of them have passed and it's time once again for our little Christmas Card Club to strut their stuff! Mrs A has asked us for some "Stars" this time.


My star is from Clarity stamps and I've stamped in versamark and heat embossed with gold detail EP, die cut with a square nestie and matted onto a gold mirri square then onto a black base card. Tag sentiment stamps are from LOTV and they've also been heat embossed in gold and tied around the layers with black and gold cord. Card is finished with some black gems.

Challenges entered:
Less is More - use a tag
Addicted to CAS - black, white and gold
CHNC - 20 minutes or less
...luckily this card was one which came together first time and therefore was made in about 15 minutes.
CHNC Extra - anything Christmas goes
