Well it's not the best of days to be taking photos in the late afternoon here. It's really grim and stormy outside, and somehow the shadows on the white background appear to be the same shades as those of the card!
It is made using Tracey's new stamp sheet Alluring Ladies and the new set of Starburst Stains Icicle and Snowflakes, which is an appropriate theme for the weather for a lot of people today! Our heavy rain has now turned to sleet, I'm just hoping we don't get the snow.
This new set has identical soft shades the same as the Icicle Creek set but instead of the secondary gold tone it has silver. It is such a pretty set. The background is the cling film technique on hammered card.
You cannot see but the mounts and nailheads are silver, so it looks a lot softer in real life. I have also used my new Sizzix Scrollwork die from Tim for the border, (we still have these in the shop by the way). It works brilliantly in my Cuttlebug with just the 2 B plates.
I think I will need to take these photos again on a better day as the colours are really much softer and shimmerier than shown. It was one of the cards I didn't get to complete in time for the Harrogate show, I've a couple more to finish that I've started, time, I wish I had more of it at the moment!
this is so beautiful and elegant anyone whould love to recieve this card i love it xx
