After making a pile of Christmas cards in traditional colours, including using the Memory Box 'Merry Christmas' die HERE for many of them, I thought I'd make a few using just black and white.
I used a black card base and embossed a thin strip of black card for the top half of the card. The snowflake was cut out with a paper punch and a clear gem finished off the card. I was really pleased with the result and it made a change to pack away the red and green card!
I would like to enter my card for the following challenges:
Pixie's Snippets Playground - Week 153 ~ All snippets used, except for the base card
Inspirational Challenge #70 ~ Christmas Card with an optional twist of no red and green.

I think black and white is so sharp together...love it for Christmas cards!

Really elegant card Liz! Black and white truly stands out from the crowd doesn't it?! Like how you embossed the upper part of the card for that extra 'pop'.
