Color Hues #76 and NBUS #56

What could be more beautiful at Christmas than red and gold?  Okay.  I realize that there are other beautiful color combinations but Color Hues is asking for that one.


Before my surgery I played with my  Glimmer Machine and some new hot foil plates.  I used this one from Spellbinders as the background for my Tim Holtz poinsettias.  I added more gold in the centers with embellishments from PPP and branches from the die set.  The heat embossed sentiment is from Pinkfresh.

Sending this to NBUS as well since this is the first outing for the beautiful Dazzling Diamonds.

I hope all my friends who are observing Thanksgiving have a wonderful day with family and friends.  I give thanks for all of you.
