Shades of Orange

Hi everyone, here is my card to enter into this weeks challenge on 52 Christmas card Throwdown challenge,
http://52cct.blogspot.com.au, I used white cardstock for the base and cut a piece of orange cardstock with a Couture Cut and Emboss Victorian Rectangle die, and I coloured in the edges with a old gold glitter gel pen, and added pieces of gold beads to the front of the card, I used the Belteek Inspired Technique by Kitty Caracciolo, http://kittiekraft.typepad.com, to eboss the centre piece and used Memento Ink Pad Tangelo, and the technique gave me darks, medium and medium colouring for this piece, the embossing folder is an old Cuttlebug one with Christmas Numbers on it, I don't have the packaging so I don't know the exact name for it, I stamped a sweet little Christmas bauble from an old stamp pad, with Merry Christmas in the centre, I am happy with this one, hope you will be too, all your comments are greatly appreciated, and thanks so much for visiting today, Jasann
