This week over at the Paper Players Lesley has a gorgeous colour combo for us...
Baja Breeze is my all time favourite colour so I knew I was going to have fun with this one! I pulled out some new goodies from the Autumn Winter catty to come up with this...
I LOVE this snowflake die!! I added some serious bling with rhinestones and silver dazzling details and love how it all layered together. The grey panel was stamped with some of the small ornaments from Ornament Keepsakes and then the sentiment (from Beautiful Season) was stamped over the top with Versamark then embossed with white EP. I die-cut a border on the black card with an edgelit die and then embossed with the coordinating embossing folder. The Baja Breeze background was embossed with the new Lacy Brocade embossing folder and I added some Baja Breeze seam binding to finish.
I used this week's Freshly Made sketch for the layout...
