Today I'm joining in with the Color Hues Challenge.
I used the Mid Mod City stamp from Claire Brennan Design stamped in black, adding a red Santa hat sticker from Jolee and 2 red enamel dots. I made the sentiment on the computer.
I continued the black/red colors on the inside, using Arched Holiday Sentiments from The Greetery.
Claire's stamp set comes with a second stamp that adds color to the buildings - so I tried a second card inking that stamp in red and stamping over the black outline of the buildings.
I don't usually like to be told what colors to use - but this combo spoke to me!

Those are fantastic ... I really love the pop of red in the first one.
What perfect cards for our color challenge Julia!! I'm especially loving the first one with the Santa hat on top of one of the buildings! Thanks so much for sharing these awesome Christmas cards and making our color combo SHINE!! Hugs. :0)
That stamp makes a really classy card. I love them both equally. Your little Santa hat made me smile xx
What a creative and delightful card! Love that Santa's hat and the red dots on the first card. Your sentiment, of course, is just perfect as is the inside of your card! Thanks for sharing with us at Color Hues!
Such elegant images for Christmas cards. Great addition with Santa's hat to add a little whimsy ♥
Two fun takes on the Color Hues pairing Julia. I think the first just edges it in my opinion. So pleased the new colour duo spoke to you! :)
Both city landscape cards are terrific, Julia! I love the added santa hats! Thanks for sharing your creativity at Color Hues.
Love these! They are great examples of using red and black for Christmas. Wonderful cityscape that works equally well in black and white with little red embellishments as it does all coloured in red.
Fab city scene, Julia - love the outline and the colored versions!! Would be fun in many colors!!
Wow, what a stylish card! A great way to play with that colour combo, Jo x
Both cards are brilliant Julia! This stamp just keeps on giving doesn't it - I'm so thrilled Claire is back!
While both cards look fab, there's just something about your first card, with the black on white and just a bit of red with the Santa hat and gems, that really appealed to me! I love seeing your card in the gallery, Julia, thanks so much for playing along at Color Hues!
