Less is More Colour Challenge

It's time for another colour challenge at Less is More and this week  it's
Green & Gold.
This colour combination makes me think of either German white wine or Christmas and I decided to go with the latter.
Here is a little more squished leaf background, die-cut with the row of Memory Box Christmas trees and outlined with the matching die in gold. The sentiment is from Sizzix.

This is an Impression Obsession die-cut, randomly coloured with an alcohol pen, then stamped with a splatty stamp and heat embossed in white. A little Glamour Dust was added for extra sparkle.
The sentiment is from Stampin' Up (retired) embossed with Wow Pale Gold embossing powder.
The background is embossed with a Sheena Douglass folder. 
This is a very old stamp from Inkadinkado, embossed in gold onto deep green paper and mounted on a woven texture gold backing, cut with a Simon Says Stamp stitched square.

Another Simon Says Stamp die-cut here, with the remainder of the strip of trees from the I.O. die cut.
Very simple!
