Hi everyone, I've been making some brusho backgrounds using shades of brown.
I diecut the tree and thought it looked a bit bland so sprinkled on some sandstone brushos and spritzed it with gold shimmer mist.
Here's a closer look.
The thanks diecut is what the tree looked like originally.
I'm playing along with a few challenges:

A great gift Cathy and love the brusho finish with that extra bit of sparkle on the tree, and a pretty embossed background too. x
ReplyDeleteThe brushos added texture and color and the gold shimmer made it shine. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. Love how you achieved the colors.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous CAS card Cathy. Love the embossed background. Really shows off that beautiful brusho'd tree. Glad you showed us a close up with the gold shimmer. Thanks for sharing it with us at Just Us Girls this week.
