This or That Thursday Christmas Classics

 Are you team warm or team cold? 🤔 now that doesn't sound craft related at all but I promise it is! I've  made 2 cards for today using the Christmas Classics bundle of stamps and dies.  Each card is made in exactly the same way. But one is with a warm colour palette and the other a cold palette.  Colour is a powerful thing that influences us in so many ways with out us even thinking about it! For example yellow is sunny, green is calming  and white is clean.

So for today's card I've started with a warm colour palette of rich red and warm gold with soft vanilla.

The design is quite a simple yet elegant one but the generous amount of gold glimmer paper makes it look rich and unctuous. 
Top tip here is to use some low tack tape to attatch the 2 dies together so that they cut out together consistently.

I repeated the card but this time with a green, white and silver colour palette. This time the card feels cooler and crisp. It's still an elegant card but most certainly has a different feel to it.

Now of course I didn't waste the sprigs from the die cuts I used them and small scraps of the gold and silver glimmer paper to decorate the inside of the cards

So which are you team warm? Or team cold? This? Or That?
