I love the skates I used on this card. Skating makes me happy but it's been many moons since I have skated, I may need to change that. I selected the red patterned paper as it reminded me of a Nordic sweater and highlighted the bit of blue in the paper as my accent color. I love red and light blue together.
Here is a close up of the skates to try to show the shine of the shimmer paper I used. I had just enough to get these two skates out of my scrap, it was meant to be!
Happy Stamping,
Dana
What a wonderful wintry card! I just love those skates and the subtle touches of blue in the red dsp. The embossed snow in the background is perfect too!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your very kind words Carol! I appreciate your visit.
DeleteBeautiful card Dana! Like Carol I do love those skates and have been dithering over buying a skates die and or stamp forever it seems. Clever to include the red paper as it certainly does give a truly Nordic feel to your great design!
