Just Us Girls #320 - Color Week

Hi friends!  Just Us Girls has a color challenge going on this week, and Sharyn chose red, green, and gold for us.  Great for making those holiday cards!
 
I cut this die out of white cardstock and colored it with copic markers.  The star on top was embossed with gold embossing powder then adhered it to the cream cardstock.  I added some gold glitter paper and wooden stars also embossed with gold embossing powder to match the star on the die.  The main panel is popped up on fun foam for some dimension.  Strips of gold glitter paper was added as well.
 
I used this week's sketch from Freshly Made Sketches for my layout.
 
You can see more from the JUGs design team and our guest, Louise, on the JUGs blog.
 
Thanks for stopping by!
 
Recipe
Paper:  Vintage cream, Jolly Holiday (SU), gold Deco sheets (Tim Holtz)

Lisa, this is gorgeous! I love that sentiment tree and how you colored it and embossed the star. Love the addition of the gold glitter paper paired with the polka dots, too.
