Merry Monday #99 {Brown, Green, Gold, White/Cream}


Happy "Merry Monday!" This week, the challenge is brought to you by Margaret, and it's gorgeous:




This color combo is so pretty! I used white but vanilla/cream would be gorgeous too! Here's a close up of my holly and gold sequins:
 

For my holly, I used a new stamp/die set from Papertrey Ink called "Mistletoe & Holly" and then added the gold sequins for the berries.


My woodgrain-embossed brown layer is layered on shimmered gold cardstock and the sentiment is also from Papertrey Ink called "Think Big Favorites #20" - GORGEOUS!

Be sure to stop on over and check out what the rest of the Merry Makers have for your inspiration today! Link up YOUR project so we can leave you some lovin' along the way as well. Happy crafting! xoxoxo

    Hi Lori, what a wonderful idea to do a dark background. Gosh it sets off your gorgeous holly and lovely gold sequins. Love that it's woodgrain too.
