The light wasn't too great this afternoon to really show the true colors of this card, but I still think it turned out pretty! (the layout for this card was CASE'd and inspired by Debbie Olson's card today on her site "Thinking Inking") I used Echo Park "Happy Holidays" dp for the background and the tree (PTI's Merry & Bright die) and sponged both with SU's Soft Sky ink (retired). The Top Note die (SU) and the star on the tree are a really deep pink (like SU's Melon Mambo...the photo makes it look more red - grrrr!) dotted swiss cs from my local scrapbook store. I used a Spellbinders circle die that I sponged with the Soft Sky ink, and then glittered, and then added the die cut vellum snowflake, after which I finally added the tree with pop dots to make it stand out a bit. I finished by adding a bow (Michael's) and a tag from PTI's Tiny Tags die and stamp set for the "very merry".
Thanks for stopping in again and I'll be back in the morning with my promised "fall" card. :0)
This is beautiful! I love your vellum tag and snowflake. Such pretty colors too! Well you said deep pink , I have a hard time with photos too lots of times. Sometime it takes more time to post a card than make one.smile
