Fa La La

Here I began with three challenges and tried to combine them all.
They are Freshly Made sketches and here is the sketch I followed
Muse and here is the inspiration.
I chose to use the triangular tree and embellished it in a similar way, but used pearls.
I also used the colours from CAS Colours and Sketches which are Real Red, Very Vanilla and Metallic gold.
The embossing folder is Adagio from Couture Creations and the die is from Penny Black. The tree is from Clearly Besotted.
You can never have enough Christmas cards can you!

  8. I really like the different textures you have here with the embossing, the pearls, and the twine - and it looks like there's a subtle pattern on the gold mat, giving it at least some visual texture, too. Great job combining the three challenges! Thanks for making CAS - Colours and Sketches one of them. :) I hope you'll join us again soon!
