Dynamic Duos 33 and CASology 24

I've spent the last few days thinking about the black and gold challenge at Dynamic Duos when suddenly inspiration struck.  Recently I had seen this card on Pinterest that I knew I wanted to CASE someday and from there it was a short leap to this gold and black card which also happens to fit the STARS challenge at CASology.


I punched a couple of small stars then one big one out of Basic Black cardstock then put a piece of Brushed Gold behind the bigger star, added a gold embossed sentiment and mounted the whole thing on a Basic Black card base with dimensionals and I was done!  Actually a pretty easy card to put together but it looks pretty good, I think.

Thanks for stopping by!

Very elegant! The gold star just draws ones eye in and then you see the other black on black stars that give depth to the top of the card. Stunning.
