Ooooooh, this paper is PRETTYYYYYYY....but very difficult to photograph.
It's like trying to capture a mirror!
I wouldn't dare stamp on this shimmery copper paper.
The DP has beautiful flowers.
I didn't want to cut through it!
The DCWV floral paper looks like copper in the photo, but it's lighter...like a metallic orange (the gridded paper is the same shimmery color-it's from the DCWV paper pack also).
I was able to use my "Sizzix phrase" embossing folder I've had for a few years.
It was less than a dollar from the Sizzix online outlet.
I added paper curls (my new thing...can you tell???). ;)
Color inspiration is from the Play Date Cafe PDCC108.
The sketch is inspired by CardPatterns Sketch 143.
Pals Paper Arts 121:Elements of Style Pearls
inspired me to embellish with pearls.
I used a Sharpie to color some off-white pearls with the closest I had to maroon.
Thank you for stopping by today. ;)
Supplies:
DCWV Natural Stack,Sizzix embossing folder "For You" phrase,flat pearls, Sharpie
