I stamped a Hero Arts ornament on a small panel first, embossed it in gold, and added some glitter to the snowflakes. Then I added some pine branches from Winnie & Walter's new Winter Wonderland set, stamped in VersaFine Olympia Green. And to finish I sponged bundled sage distress ink in the background. The sentiment from the same set was embossed in silver on vellum, and then the whole panel was framed in a silver glitter paper. My card background uses more of the same pine sprig, and Winnie & Walter's snowflake from The Big, Bold Seasons set. I embossed them in Ranger's Silver Embossing Pearl to give a nice tone-on-tone effect. Then that panel was attached to a pearly gold frame.
I'd also like to link this to Virgina' View Metallics challenge.
