Merry Monday #97 - Merry and Bright

Hi there,
This weeks inspiration for Merry Monday is beautiful and elegant and we are to use Aqua, Silver and White.  I Silver embossed the Poinsettia  on Vellum and sponged it with Tim Holtz dye ink. I cut into the flower so I could shape the petals and give it more definition. The mat was cut on an angle using Winter Frost designer paper and Pool Party card and matted onto the White.  I finished off with Shiny Pearls, Silver Ribbon and Silver embossed the Sentiment.


Supplies:
Stamps: S/U's Joyful Christmas, Simon Says Small Folded Banners Holiday
Card and Papers: Whisper White, Pool Party, Vellum, Winter Frost DSP
Ink: Versamark, Tim Holtz Distress Inks Evergreen Bough, Pine Needles
Finishing Touches: 1/8" Silver Ribbon, Shiny Silver Pearls
Cool Tools: Embossing Buddy, Silver E/Powder, Heat Tool, Trimmer and Scoring Tool, Dble Sided Tape, Dimensionals, Zig 2 Way Glue Pen
