Mel's Weekly Challenge

Here's my card for Mel's Weekly Challenge - this week it was a colour challenge using Handsome Hunter, Yoyo Yellow, Basic Black, Whisper White and Real Red. I have wanted to try the Split Negative idea from SCS for a while now and thought this colour scheme was a good one to try it with. My sister, who was over 'playing', said they were Christmas colours, hence the Christmas sentiment. (In hindsight, I could have used a Chrissy tree then!!! LOL - Hindsight is such a wonderful thing!)
Have I broken the rules by using gold embossing????
Stamps used: Looks Like Spring and Occasional Greetings.

Extras: Clear and Gold Embossing Powder, Black Brads, Dimensionals, Crimper, Paper Piercer and Mat.
