Timeless Tuesday ~ Button Up for Winter!

Hey fellow stamp lovers!  It's Tuesday and time for another fabulous Timeless Tuesday Challenge over at Flourishes!

This week the lovely and super talented, Jenny, is out hostessed and she is challenging you to...

I took the "winter" aspect of this week challenge for a STR..E..T..C..HLOL!  I actually used the "Summer Blossoms" stamp set and coloured it with richer, wintry tones to make it seem more winter like!  I hope it speaks "winter" to you!

For my focal shape, I die cut a piece of Classic White Cardstock using the Perfectly Pierced Victorian Ovals die and then a created a thin cut frame around it.  I stamped the sweet little greeting in the center of my blossoms from the "Medallion Motif" stamp set.

I decorated my front using some cut die cut snowflakes and some "Festive Fushia" seam binding ribbon, some Silver Metallic String and some cut little buttons.  I added a touch of Stickles to the snowflakes and the center of the cream blooms for a bit of winter sparkle!

I coloured my blooms using the following Copic Markers:
BG11,BG70, BG72, BG75, BG78, BG93, BG96, R24, R27, R35, R37, R39, YR000 & YR0000.

I'm also submitting this for the Simon Says Stamps Blog challenge - anything goes challenge; here!

Be sure to visit the DT's blogs and leave them a little blog love. In return, they will amaze you with their spectacular work...
Thanks for stopping by! We hope you'll join us this week for our fantastic challenge.

Beautiful, Allison! It certainly says winter to me! I love the frosty aqua with the dark red, and the die cut snowflakes with that pretty bow make for a gorgeous embellie cluster.
