Red and White Card

Simple cards are my favorite.  I like a couple of colors, not a ton of embellishments.

This challenge is something I enjoy and I can imagine using.  Here is the challenge:


1. Make a Holiday card, any size, using mostly white and just one other color.
2. Add something glittery! (Glitter, Glimmer Mist, Rhinestones, etc.)
3. Have fun!!!
And here is what I made:
I used one of Capadia Design's hints about using paper wisely.  I cut the scallop and the stars from the red square under the white square.  I meant to emboss the white square but forgot it my focus on the bow.  In addition, the strip of red on the inside has three stars cut out.  They were then used on the front of the card.

Simple BUT Elegant and Classy, Love your card. I also don't like alot of embellishment. When you have great design and colors, you don't need them. TFS

Great way to save paper! Your card is very pretty - don't you just love red and white together?
