The First Noel

Our last new Flourishes set for November is The First Noel. This beautiful silhouette set is big and bold.

I stamped my image with Versa Fine Sepia ink on patterned paper, old old piece of 12x12 that I think is from Magenta.

I used Spellbinders die Fleur De Lis rectangles to make a mat for the image using gold card stock. It’s a deep rich shiny paper that really looks pretty in real life. The background paper is a scrap of Basic Grey…I’m not sure which winter line it’s from, but it’s a few years old. I added some Stickles to the stars and put the sentiment on the inside as I didn’t have room on the front. I tried to add ribbons, but nothing was appropriate-so I just left it simple. I used a Stardust pen to add sparkle to the stars and halo’s and other random area’s of the image. Lastly I added tiny crystal gems in topaz to the stars. You can see the sparkle in the image below.

All sets are live in the store today, so head over to Flourishes and see them in all their glory!
