Festive Fridays - Stampin' Up! Ornament Keepsakes


Hi

At the Festive Friday Challenge this week, Nicole has set a very versatile sketch for us to work with. I was going to do a polka dot background, but I've only just got the En Francais stamp set and my heat tool and I was keen to break these things out.

I embossed some Whisper White with white embossing powder using the En Francais stamp. Then I sponged over the cardstock with Gumball Green, Marina Mist, Midnight Muse and Frost White Shimmer Paint. I got this combo straight out of the Color Coach....they are very pretty together.

The Ornament Keepsakes stamp set is stunning....and with the matching Framelits you can't go wrong. I have a feeling I shall be using it for heaps of Christmas projects this year.

I used the beautiful Gumball Green Stitched Satin Ribbon on the card as it matched my ornament....remember that this month, with every $60 spent, you get a roll of Stitched Satin Ribbon for free! Email me with your order! :)

I hope you will share some of your projects with us at the Festive Friday Challenge - it is a great sketch - there are so many possibilities!! :)

Cheers
Alison
