Hello, I made this for Faith's (markie's Mom) Tuesday Chat challenge on the Flourishes Forum. We were to use pink & make a square card, this one is 5x5.
The card base is silver, with a layer of pink pirouette.
I stamped the image, from the new, beauiful, All that Glitters set, in versamark & embossed with silver EP.
For the branch I used craft ink spots, and used always artichoke down the centers of the branch, and old olive on the rest. This gave more of a 2 tone colour, then I embossed with clear EP, and added the silver cord.
The ornament is coloured lightly with SU crayons & a water brush.
The top panel is pretty in pink, embossed with the d-vine swirl EF. The opening was cut with a coluzzle, with silver glittery brads in the corners. This whole panel is popped up.
The sentiment is from the flourished Christmas set, embossed with silver EP. I went around the edge with a silver marker, and added a tiny bit of pink in the background.
