Ok, so this sounded easy when I first saw the challenge, but while I was playing around with my stamps and colors, I really had the hardest time with it! Who knew? I love mixing things up, but Christmas is one of those holidays that I can only think of reds, greens silvers or golds -LOL :)
So this is what I came up with. I kinda "cheated" because bronze is a slight variation of gold! he he he :)
I used the sentiment from Flourishes "Poinsettia and Pine" that I stamped in Memento Rich Cocoa ink on to Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock. I matted it with a metallic bronze cardstock and added a Prima flower, both of which I just found out that Flourishes is out of. The layered dies are a Parisian Accent, Labels # 23, Oval and Matting Basics A and B. I sponged the edges with Antique Linen and Old Paper Distress Inks, and I used a punch inside the window for some interesting details, then added a Want To Scrap Fancy Brackets in black next to the flower.
