It's Cloudy Baby

Hello Nomad friends.  I love embossing is all it's varied forms.  Heat, dry, faux, all add a wow factor to my art.  I decided to use a small but awesomely beautiful die from Memory Box to make a stylised cloud background with a faux emboss look.  

It's been a bit grey here today so maybe that influenced my colour scheme choice, although I do think grey is an underrated colour.  I chose a pearlised slightly textured card base that I knew I would have some scraps for cos I had a whole pack of this once upon a time.....  Eureka!!!  Scraps were cut with the small die from Memory Box Palace Oval Frame die set and arranged in a cloudy manner on the base card.   I also stuck one of the die cuts at the bottom of the card and added a tiny Seasons Greetings silver sticker.  Then I cut and dry embossed Memory Box Frosted Christmas Tree from silver mirror card.  A card that looks much better in the real and I may have to use that background again.......

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

    I also think grey is a very under-rated colour - I'm a fan. I like how you have made the background with your ovals, and the tree is the star of the show, isn't it? Thanks very much for joining us at ABC Christmas Challenge xx Lynda/Loopyloo DT
