Love this – and thanks for sharing. Question – where have you used the 1/8 inch circle??? Thanks in advance x
Hi Angela. It might be difficult to see in the photo, but I punched a small hole at the top of the ornament to thread the silver cord through and then just tied in a bow. Hope that helps, Gill xx
Love the colour combo, one of my favourites. Must admit it took a few minutes to find where the small hole was. Very clever xx
Love black, red and white, very rich looking. Silver cord is nice touch to this lovely card.
Gill – this is fabulous – beautifully elegant. I love the pop of red on the black and white. Great card xx
Elle est super classe Gill, très chic, les opposer noir blanc, blanc noir et le ruban rouge met cet ensemble en valeur, biz
Elegantly beautiful!
Gorgeous! So striking and elegant – love it!! Xx
love the layout of your classic Christmas card
Gill, this card is a shining example of stunning classic elegance! Everything about it is fantastic – the white embossing on the black and the rich feeling imparted by the red. Amazing job, my friend! 🙂
