This card was inspired by Tosha Leyendekker with Stamp Talk with Tosh. Her work is amazing and she has such a beautiful style! You can see her gorgeous card here.
I love gold, silver and platinum used together. I have taken the beautiful Mistletoe image from Serendipity and heat embossed it in platinum. The oval die cut and dp were edged in silver with a Krylon pen. A gold pen and creamy brown Cat's Eye chalk was used to edge the other papers.
The berries on the mistletoe were dotted with Viva Glitter Liner which gives them a subtle silvery shimmer! I've colored the silk ribbon with Copics to match the metallic paper.
Thanks for looking and Happy Holidays!
