Unusual Christmas Colours!!

I was hunting through my patterned papers looking for some Plaid paper so that I could have another go at the  Virginia's View  challenge when I can across this striped paper and had an idea that it might look good on a Christmas card.  I got so carried away that I made two cards in the end, all very simple involving a lot of dies and the Hero Arts "Holiday Messages and Frames set"

 I have die cut the Winter Houses then adhered to the of glittery card next diecutting the rectangle with an Avery Elle die. Lastly added the gold embossed sentiment.  It looks so shimmery almost like a star in the sky!!

For the second card I reversed the dies to have glittery houses and a striped sky, then I die cut into rounds to look like baubles.

I had fun with these a modern take on Christmas!!
