CC642 Merry and Bright

Photo Details

Poster: beesmom

Barbara is our hostess this week and she has chosen tranquil tide, pool party, silver and for dessert: Christmas in July. I don't have Tranquil Tide and subbed Emerald Envy.
.
Sponged the 2 colors on cs, going for an "ombre" type look. Splattered the cs with white acrylic paint. Die cut the tree line from this. Die cut the arched opening in a separate piece of cs and embossed the negative. Attached this embossed piece to card front. Embossed the sentiment in silver, matted that panel in silver foil cs, attached the tree line to the back of the opening and attached panel with dimensionals. Added some clear gems for sparkle (stars maybe?).

Come join our challenge!

Maura - this is lovely - your trees look like they are encased in a snow globe with sliver "flakes" falling around them.

Lovely trees, with just a hint that it's a snow globe. I love all the detail, the dry embossing, layers, beautiful ombrÃ© trees!

...sure it’s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?

life is something that happens only when you run out of cardstock

What a lovely CAS style card, Maura. The Swiss dot at along with the water splatter on the trees looks like falling snow.
