Pink and Gold Slimline

 Hi everyone - hope you're having a great week! I should be catching up on past due cards - instead, I squeezed in my third and final slimline card for Challenge 47 at Christmas Kickstart.


Supplies: Paper - Hero Arts Blush (retired); 
Neenah White; Paper Studio glitter & gold metallic;
Docrafts First Noel; Lawn Fawn Watercolor Wishes
Dies - A Jillian Vance Design Jingle Bells (bows) &
Elizabeth Crafts Ornament Set 2 (retired)
Other - sentiment strip from a Spellbinders kit

As usual, my card developed into something far different from where I started! I die cut some ornaments in traditional reds and green, then was looking through the patterned paper stash for something to put in the windows of a frame. Ran across this gorgeous white/gold/silver music/poinsettia paper and zing, off I went to do pink/gold ornaments. I already had the silver frame cut in the stash so cut just the window pieces from my precious patterned paper (you know what I'm talking about!). Sorry for the reflection - so hard to photograph metallic cardstock!! I used it as a mat layer behind a white mat. Decided to add some cute Jillian Vance bows atop the ornaments and found the perfect sentiment strip in a 2019 Spellbinders kit. Done!!

Thanks for stopping & happy crafting!!
