Not easy taking photos of such a silvery, shiny card. My camera needs a flash for good focus, but the glare is blinding! Sorry for any of you with sensitive eyes...or migraines! I did try to tone it down without darkening the whole shot. The colour palette was chosen in order to enter the Dynamic Duos challenge #30 this week: Midnight Muse and Silver. Very classy together, I must say.
And I took advantage of this design to use up my Flourish Designer Frames. The card base is Midnight Muse, but that's kind of obvious isn't it. I layered it with Whisper White and you might be able to see a little peek of the Houndstooth embossing folder around the edges of the next panel of Midnight Muse. The sentiment is one of my favourite fonts from Lacy and Lovely and you may have noticed how the Decorative Label punch coordinates with the Flourish Designer frame. The main image is from a stamp set that I've just now used for the first time: Rejoicing with You. It is perfect for heat embossing with silver embossing powder. And I used Window Frames framelits for the Silver Glimmer Paper and Midnight Muse backing.
My special VIPs, the One Night in Bethlehem committe members, were so happy to get these cards, so I was happy that they were happy, and it was all one big happy fest!! We will all be genuinely happy when the event is successfully completed and we can actually start planning our own Christmas celebrations! But it is so rewarding to see something like this help people to understand the real reason for the season!
