Gilding Flakes Musical Christmas Mark II - Rudolph Day

Hello Peeps

You remember a few posts I showed you a card I had made using Gilding Flakes?  Well, I liked it so much, and as I had made some extra elements so I thought I would try the other colour of Guilding Flakes I have and make another.......

This time it is on a red background and I have only stamped the background once. 
I sooo love the music stamp and the Poinsettia.  I think I prefer this to the first card.  The colours in the gilding flakes are nicer and the background does not seem to be as busy.  I don't think I sneezed this time either as there are less flakes in my room!

It is the last Rudolph Day of 2012 before the Big Day!  Yikes!!! Where did the last 11 months go?  Thanks Sandra for keeping this going all year.  It is great to know that I have cards  ready to send without having a major panic round about now trying to get cards made!  

Have a great Crafting weekend.

Hugs

Hettie

I love the gilding flakes on the red card, Sam, it looks so luxurious. I can see why you love the combination of the music with that beautiful poinsettia. I think I might have to make sure that joins my crafty stash for next christmas!!!!
Hope you are staying safe and warm in this awful weather.

A beautiful card. I love Christmas cards that feature music. The flakes are fun aren't they? I scrolled back a few posts and found your wreath which is stunning, and I creased up at the wedding tale. happy Rudolph day. Kate x

This is so lovely. I'm not certain what Gilding Flakes is (like heat emboss?). Your music background is wonderful with this poinsettia, and the gold score really sets off the whole card. So very pretty and impressive. TFS
