White and Gold........

Good Monday morning everyone!  I hope you had a wonderful weekend!   I'm on my second cup of coffee and beginning to feel like I can face the day! 

I have another card to share with you this morning.  I will be entering this in Joan's Gardens Challenge # 23.
Here is the link for Joan's Blog and you can get more details there.  joanscreations.blogspot.com  Joan has a shop there and carries some really lovely things.  She is easy to deal with and ships quickly.....definitely a class act. 

The Challenge calls for the following:

1. Create a Window card (Create an opening on the front of the card to see the image stamped inside.)
2. Use Christmas Ornament - or something similar
3. Some thing Gold
4. Something fuzzy


I created my window with Spellbinders Dies and several layers.  I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder on one of the layers, and edged my window with Krylon 18K Gold Leafing Pen.  My ornament was stamped on the inside of the card so it would show through the window.  The stamp is from Flourishes but for the life of me I cannot remember the name of the set.  I embossed the pine cone with Ranger Gold embossing powder.  For the something fuzzy I used some gold thread on the edge of the card.  Pretty clean and simple and I just love the clean look!  I think I covered all the bases for this challenge.  I hope you enjoy it!

Supplies:
Watercolor Paper
Spellbinders dies
Krylon 18K Gold Leafing Pen
Flourishes Stamps
Ranger Gold Embossing Powder
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder
Gold String
Scor-Tape
