Color Throwdown #575
If you know me at all, you'll know that I could NOT resist this challenge from Color Throwdown... meet ctd575:
I had a blast upcycling a bit of packing paper from my RC package! amy T. who is their January guest designer, will be pleased =]
Meet my card...
- Kraft from the packing paper
- Gold represented by my gold embossed images
- Green leaves, and sentiment
Done, and dusted, in a 5x7 inch size! The leaves are from several sets: EBE Mondo Chrysanthemum and dies, & Altenew Beautiful Day - which is also where you'll find my white berry sprigs. I couldn't have written a better sentiment - this one is from Altenew's Rustic Linen set.
I think this one should be hand-delivered... don't you? Wish I could deliver it to YOU to thank you for dropping by today!
