I backed the opening with a piece of purple foil cardstock. Then I inlaid the outline die which I cut from black cardstock. Makes for a striking, elegant look, I think.
The sentiment from Delicate Wreath was stamped in Versafine Clair Nocturne & the panel was matted with black cardstock. Finished off with black twine tied in a bow. I'm also entering PB&M & SSS Wednesday.

I've been wanting to use the cute little gift images in Gina K Sketched Wreath Builder stamp set. I used my mini MISTI & stamped them in Brilliance Pearlescent Poppy & Ivy.
I stamped part of a sentiment in the set & used direct to paper technique with the Poppy ink to make the thin mat. The gifts were colored with the Jane Davenport Silver Screen glitter pen & then I restamped the images.
Thought the tiny gems were all it needed. I'm entering Gina K Monthly Mix & Word Art Wednesday.
