Week two of Christmas in August and at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown we have a soft and creamy colour challenge for you to play with
I almost never combine cream and white, neither do I like mixing metallics so this was a difficult challenge for me to get my head around, but I am really pleased with the way it turned out, once I got started (with a little help from a friend!)
This is not a holiday stamp at all, but heat embossed in white on a cream card it takes on a frosty feeling, highlighted with tiny dashes of gold and silver glitter, The sentiment is a silver peel-off, which I also used last week, as are the tiny gold stars. I'm going to link up to Completely Christmas where anything goes.

Louise - I think this is absolutely gorgeous - the image really has an ethereal beauty! Great work.
ReplyDeletewow Louise, quelle finesse et quelle délicatesse, elle est trop belle, biz
ReplyDeleteI agree - you've definitely captured a frosty feeling with this image. It's lovely!
ReplyDeleteI have this stamp Louise, it's a real favourite of mine and I love how you've used it for a Christmas card, giving the image a frosty feel!
ReplyDeleteI think you did a great job with the colours - despite your initial reservations! I was struggling with the idea of this colour combo too but once I embraced it and just got down to getting on with it I ended up loving it!
