Green, White and Gold

I've not been able to join in at the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown for a few weeks, but am back with a colour card for you.

Andreja M is our host this month, and she has chosen green, white and gold.

I used my distress oxides for the green - mainly forest moss and crushed olive, but with others thrown in. I smooshed using an acrylic block - firstly onto a piece I covered completely, for the ivy die cuts, and then when the ink had been broken up, onto the main piece to create the "splash.

I then splattered gold acrylic paint, mixed with a little water, to give my gold touch.

The sentiment is printed, then cut out and the corners cut with a hole punch to give the ticket shape. I edged with gold gel pen.

I used a Clarity die to cut out the fretwork farme, and then cut to size for a 6x6 card blank.

 Simple, but I hope also a little stylish.
