Gilded leaves

Today I have a card to share that is for the Make it Monday Gilded Leaves challenge. I have made an anniversary card that I needed for a 60th celebration tomorrow. These leaves are a perfect embellishment for a fancy card such as this. I used Lovely Layers and the retired Life set for my stamps. Damask Designs for the sentiment. The berries were cut with a SU die which I painted with a platinum finish. Definitely a fun technique!!

Create Along with Us September

Here is my first Christmas card of 2018. My favorite cards to make kicked off by Papertrey Ink Create Along with Us. Check out all the details HERE
I chose to use Betsy Veldman's cute little winter scene card as my inspiration. I used SU embossing folders for the snow, the woodgrain frame and a SU Woodgrain stamp that I used to look like Santa's in front of his winter woodpile. He's taken a few slices out to carry his greetings. Santa and holly/berry are from Believe retired PTI set. Sentiments are from PTI Tree Trimming Trio. Paper on aqua tree is from PTI Bitty Star Basics.
This is Betsy's card

And here is the one I made.

Happy Friday Everyone! My card is for the challenge at Papertrey Ink MIM. HERE is the details.
I used Polka Dot Basics for the background in grey. Flowers are from an old SU set Embrace Life. Thanks die is from PTI.

I thought I'd jazz it up a bit with glossy accents on the butterflies and copic colored a bit more yellow on the flowers. Not sure if I like it better or not?
