The winner will be announced on the Mark's Finest Papers Blog on Friday.
I had been looking for a stamp with Christmas sheet music on it when I saw Flourishes’ Christmas Music. I stamped the music with Palette Noir Black on Snow Storm Smooth cs and matted the panel in Egyptian Gold and Ripened Tomato. After scoring the large white panel using my Scor-Pal, I sponged Palette Moulin Rouge around the edges, and then matted it with gold and placed it on the red cardbase. I was so happy to see that Flourishes’ Fancy Labels matched some of my Spellbinders labels dies – this one fits very nicely into Labels Four. I added some pretty satin ribbon and a drum charm.
The paper, ink, charm, and Flourishes images are available at Mark’s Finest Papers.
Make sure you check out the cards from the rest of the DT and comment on each Blog for your chance to win all the goodies!
