November 2015 Blog Hop Challenge



Wow! One month till Christmas!!! This month's inspiration photo, over at Papertrey Ink, really intrigued me! I love the white and silver with the blues and greens!

Blog Hop Inspiration



And here's what I came up with. I used Postmarks: Holiday, and the sentiment is from O Tannebaum, both Papertrey Ink stamp sets. I heat embossed the center tree in silver, and used Distress Inks, as well as some PTI inks, to "paint" the other two trees. The center panel is matted onto a piece of Tropical Teal cardstock and some silver stars finsh it off. Love these colours together, and can't wait to see all the cards today, using them!
Thanks for looking!
