The die cut leaves were simply watercolored with Lindy's Magicals Ponderosa Pines Olive, Canna Lily Burnt Orange and Poutine Gold. You can see the beautiful shimmer in my IG post. Love the texture from SSS Refracted embossing folder on another of my newly discovered terra cotta note cards. I brushed brown ink on the edges. The SSS sentiment from Full of Thanks was stamped in Versafine Clair Pinecone and clear embossed. Embellishments are SSS Mocha Java sequins. I'm entering Time Out Challenges #300 with the Fall Thanksgiving Celebration in the US and TTTC282 using Leaves/Free/Die Cuts from my friend Betty's board.
Christmas Kickstart Snow Alert! challenge is about to close. Again, I finally made a card that's been in the back of my mind for weeks.
Box 12 that Your Paper Insider generously sent to me contains a beautiful shimmery light blue cardstock called Aquamarine Curious Metallics. I thought it'd be perfect embossed with SSS Fanciful Flurries folder. It's really gorgeous in person! I have several snowflake dies and purposely chose the one from Uniko because it has large enough sections to show off the Holographic More Dots cardstock. Check out the video in my IG post. I stamped the W&W sentiment in Versafine Clair Blue Belle and used the same ink to color the edges of the mats. I'm also entering SSS Monday, SSS Wednesday and WAW.
AMAZING card Greta!! Love the gorgeous colour of your background paper with the embossed snowflakes. The large snowflake cut from holographic paper is GORGEOUS. I love the shimmer and reflectiveness of this beautiful snowflake!! Thanks for joining us at Christmas Kickstart! xx
