Silver Holly


Another card for the Less is More challenge this time I've used a Penny Black Snowflake and Holly stamp and I've embossed it with two different colours of silver. I've pearlescent silver and normal silver powder and using a spoon I used the pearlescent first which is on the mistletoe its a bit hard to see.
Once heated I added the red pearls on the holly, white on the mistletoe and a clear gem on the snowflake.


Here I just used the normal silver powder but stupid me put it on linen card which is a different shade of white but its done now.
I finally feel I done my best with the Silver challenge. I'll be back later 2pm with my Simon Says Stamps Challenge card.
