Christmas Card Challenges #2 -- Black and White

Sunday, December 8, 2013

This week's optional challenge at Christmas Card Challenges is a color challenge:  use black and white.  I decided to bust out the embossing paste and this fun aspen tree stencil to create my card.
I'm also entering this into this week's Out on a limb challenge at CAS-ual Fridays.
***Supplies***


I hope you are having a nice weekend. Crafty hugs!
