Black and Silver Christmas

Two Christmas cards totally out of my Christmas colour comfort zone!

I stamped the snowglobe and the accompanying medieval town in black, bordered with silver mirri cs, and went over the snowflakes and some of the dots with a Stardust gel pen, and added silver ball embellishments to the centres of the snowflakes.

And the second card, inspired by my friend Loll:

On a piece of black cs, I used silver glitter paste through a branch of berries and leaves. I bordered with silver glitter cs and added a die cut sentiment from the same glitter cs.

The first card is going to The Paper Players Tic Tac Toe challenge - I chose the right vertical column - "square card, masculine, neutrals".

 

And to Jingle Belles - I was inspired by their image to use a snowglobe stamp:

The second card is going to 52 Christmas Card Throwdown:
