Happy November

Well it's November already, doesn't the time fly by.  It seems I look up and it is 3:00 in the afternoon and I've done NOTHING but stamp.  Speaking of stamping, I added the weekly deals at the bottom of this post just in case you are interested in some GREAT DEALS!  For me November is the time for Christmas Cards!!!!!  I have so many ideas (some I've already shared) and can't decide between all the great sets in the Holiday Mini.
Here is my share for today, it is done with Christmas Bauble, which is a single stamp.  I saw this a card done in gold on Split Coast Stampers.  It was done by Renee at Hearts Delight  Cards, I changed it up a bit but it still wasn't quite right.
The picture doesn't do this justice.  The card base is Baked Brown Sugar, with a Early Espresso mat, and a piece of Gold Soiree DSP.  The next layer is Brushed Gold Card Stock matted with Early Espresso  the image is embossed in Early Espresso Powder and colored with the Crumb Cake Blendies.  I also used the darkest two pens from the Skin Tone color collection and Cherry Cobbler.  The Merry Christmas is also embossed and matted with a Espresso faux frame.

Here is my card which was made with Brushed Silver Card stock and Silver Velum instead of Gold.

The base is Night Of Navy and the mat is done in Whisper white.  I added a piece of Smoky Slate then a piece of the Silver Velum.  The ribbon is Night of Navy 1/2" seam binding which I have to say Stampin' UP! makes the BEST ribbon.  I embossed the Bauble in Black embossing powder and colored it with both Night Of Navy and Smoky Slate Blendibilites.  With a touch of Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler, it is matted in Navy and mounted with Demensionals.   I think I like this better, what do you think??
