We had a stunning day here on the island yesterday, the sun was out and it was gorgeous. Makes it a little hard to think winter thoughts, it is a good thing I don't need to think winter to make Christmas cards :).
Welcome to a new Merry Monday Challenge, this week the theme is birds.
I don't think I could make a more simple card. I love this delicate DP so I let it do all the work. I embossed it with a Snowfall embossing folder then added some ribbon and gems. I finished with a embellishment that I matted with red and brown card stock.
Please stop on by Lesley's Always Playing with Paper blog to see what the design team has created and to play along.
Supplies: Cream and brown card stock,
Designer Paper-Jellybean Soup, Recollection embellishments, Spellbinders, embossing folder, ribbon, recollections gems.
Cheers,
Nina

ReplyDeleteThis card is just beautiful - I know there's an awful lot of texture and shiny-ness we can't appreciate just from the photo. So beautiful!
