Christmas is the theme for this weeks Basic Grey challenge. I used Coco's sketch for Sketch Saturday. I am thoroughly enjoying making Christmas cards in unusual colours this year. I used a PSX snowflake stamp and heat embossed it with Gold Tinsel powder, cut it out and layered it on tht center circles. The snowflake eyelet in the center was silver, so I heat embossed this with Gold Tinsel powder also (wasn't sure whether this would work - but it did) I layered snowflake acetate over the two larger circles but this doesn't really show on the photograph. Everything else from stash.
Oh wow, this is gorgeous. Its great to see what one can up with, without using the traditional Xmas colour combo. Warm regards
