We have some fun for you today, our friends Sandi and Eva are joining us for the hop, and we also have a sketch to go with the colours. Now we can use both or just one and today I did both.
Here are the Colours .... thanks Amy
And here is the sketch...thanks Sandi.
Now away we go, here is my share for the challenge.
I started with a Whisper White card base and then layered from that point. The first mat is the Merry Merlot and then I adhered the beautiful lacy flowers from the Delightfully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty paper to a piece of the stunning Copper Foil.
On top of that to stay true to the sketch, I cut a piece of the Merry Merlot, Tranquil Tide and Whisper White to become the art and sentiment .
You will wonder where I got the JOY from, well friends, it's the YOU from the Celebrate You Thinlits Dies. I cut it out from back side of the Foil sheet and the cut off the "U" to make the "J". You have to do this one this way as the foil is only on one side. Any other colours work, you just turn it over and cut the U. I am not sure where I saw this but someone out there is very sneaky, thanks.
Always great to think outside the box.
A nice close up for you....and shows the snowflakes from Swirly Snowflakes Thinlits. This piece I popped up with dimensionals. Just a few pearls ( gold not copper ) and a tiny faceted Gem.
Hope you like my share today , I will post the links at the end for you. But for now away to check out the rest of the hop....

What a creative way to use that die! I thought for a minute that I'd missed something in the catalog. :) Beautiful foil background with the delicate flowers over it!
