Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
And it's the last one until September.
It's Colleen's choice this week.
Since I was recently enabled to buy this ornament die,
I was delighted to have a good excuse to use it.
I just happened to have some blue and platinum Inka Gold pieces.
I die cut the ornament from silver and gold foil as well as the Inka Gold.
I even found a sparkly, silver snowflake in my stash to make the ornament more ornate.
Since I used some snippets on this card (the foil and smoosh), I'm going to
visit Pixie's Snippet Playground.
I'm also going to visit
where we bring a Christmas card every month.
The challenge runs from the 25th through the end of the month.
I hope you'll join us at
Merry Monday
for our final challenge before summer break!
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous card. Love the textures and the colours you've used. That ornament die is so pretty. Such a clean and classy card x Thanks for sharing x
ReplyDeleteStunning ornament, Bonnie - just love the silver and gold foil with the blue background! The falling snow embossing looks great too! Have a fun summer off MM and thanks for the inspiration!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute idea Bonnie! See you in September and enjoy your summer!
ReplyDeleteCan you hear me going "aaah"? This is so beautiful, and your inlay inca pieces look SO 3-dimensional. Love the die (you deserved it, yes you did!) and you've certainly shown it to maximum advantage on the beautiful, CAS card. Also love that gorgeous bird that flew in this morning. (actually he'd arrived earlier and was waiting on the porch. Neighbor called to ask if I knew there were pkgs by the front door!) TFS & Hugs
ReplyDeleteVery elegant Christmas card Bonnie!
