Cream, black and gold

Now that Christmas is almost here, I only have time to make some quick last-minute cards. And I keep surprising myself, for it appears that quicker is sometimes yielding better results. I'm quite pleased with how today's card turned out. I hope you all agree.

Holographic gold cardstock - from stash
Black pearls - Viva Perlen-pen
Border - Silhouette design
Sentiment - TlcCreations December freebie
Ribbon and star sticker - from stash
Distress ink on borders and sentiment - Ranger Antique linen
