Colors for a Merry Christmas

 I'm on a roll, playing with another Color Hues Challenge today!

I usually have trouble if someone tells me to use certain colors - but having just two colors seems to work easier for me?!?

First time using this lovely Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Better Press Plate. (it's on sale!)

I used Tropical Teal card stock and Silver Pigment ink.

Usually I use Better Press paper when I use a Better Press Plate - so I was happy to see it would work with regular card stock.  It may not be as deeply "PRESSED" since the card stock is not as thick but it works for me!

I added 3 teal enamel dots on this first one. 

And 3 silver crystals on my second one.
I made four cards while I was at it -  so four more for the Christmas Box! 
I may even have leftovers for next year?!

It may not press as deep but the detail is exquisite, Julia. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous card with us at Just Us Girls.
