Purple Christmas


No these are not the colours that I usually use but at 52 Christmas Throwdown
They have set Purple, White and Silver for their challenge 
 
Had difficulty taking a photo because of the sheen on the silver card.
and the white card looks a pale mauve.
Silver is not a colour that I would use very much.
While searching for silver card I found an A4 sheet of the purple backing paper
which has been hidden away for a long time.
Perhaps my stash is too large and I should explore it more frequently.
The baubles are by Docrafts Papermania and I only used part of the
folder for the front of the card  but used the full embossing folder
on the inside of the card.
I have used foam dots on the embossed image and the strip at the bottom of the card
to raise them although this is hard to see in the photo.
