Hello Friends and welcome back to my blog!
SO happy you stopped by!
Here's a fun inspiration board we've created to help get you started ...
I dug deep into my old, old dies for today's card.
But first, I pulled out a sheet of gold metallic paper and silver metallic paper as that was all I wanted to use on my card (along with white of course). I first cut 2 strips from the silver paper ... 1 at 1" and 1 at 1/2". Next I cut out my focus die ... Memory Box 'Glowing Candles' (#98661). I was so happy to see it was still available at Simon Says Stamps (note link).
Then in order to 'tie them together', I cut 2 strips from my gold metallic paper ... 1 at 1/2" and 1 at 1/4" and overlaid atop the silver panels.
It's one of the larger snowflakes in the Hunkydory 'Let it Snow' die set.

ReplyDeleteWowie zowie, Darlene, I've never seen this die look so good! It's one of my oldies but goodies, too. The snowflake was the perfect finishing touch. There sure are a lot of pretty snowflakes in that collection!

ReplyDeleteI was so busy in the week before Christmas that I'm only just getting around to commenting on all my fellow POE DT cards! This is beautiful, Darlene! Love all the gold. It's such a wonderful take on the mood board!
ReplyDeleteYour card sounds so elegant with the mix of gold, silver, and that beautiful snowflake accent! Metallics really add a festive and timeless feel, perfect for the holidays. I’ll be checking out the Peace on Earth Christmas Challenge for more inspiration—thank you for sharing!
