Christmas Spirit Challenge by Flourishes

THE Flourishes Christmas CHALLENGE IS: MIM also known as More Is More. You were supposed  to make a card and then spice it up version of your first creation. Here is my version, Card #1 I used Crumb Cake as the base then I cut 2 pieces of paper from Basic Grey Figgy Pudding. Put the red on the top and stripes on the bottom. I stamped saying from Flourishes from the set called Christmas Music using black crafter's ink and embossed using detail black EP from Ranger. Using different Distress ink pads colored the white paper, I stamped the scroll stamp using gold pigment ink and embossed using gold EP. I stamped the saying from the same set and used Country Charm Labels using black crafter's ink and detailed black EP. I cut out label using the Spellbinders Grommet Tags. Used red/gold ribbon that I bought at Flourishes. I used 2 red glimmer brads from Stampin'Up.

Card # 2 I changed the base of the card by using Early Espresso paper then I added another green layer from the same Basic Grey collection. Then I used the same red and stripe layer. I added a gold mesh from Maya Arts plus I added a satin red ribbon from Flourishes. I added a sign post that I cut out from Spellbinders Elegant Posts added some champagne mist from Stampin'Up to the raised embossed area. I used the same stamp from Flourishes but changed the orientation punched some holes and use gold thread to tie it to the sign post. I put my saying from the same stamp on the bottom using a different Country Charm Label. I change the glitter brads from red to gold.
