Hi everyone, I hope your festive season was a happy one.
We spent the time resting up at home. Sometimes that's what's needed! I'm on holidays from work for a few more weeks, so looking forward to more of the same with some card making thrown in!
Always a bit late to the party with new goodies, this Sizzix Artsy Leaves die was a Christmas present to myself. I had some scraps left over from projects using distress spray stains and managed to diecut quite a few of the leaves.
I sprayed the leaves with some gold glimmer mist to tie the look together, it's a bit hard to see in the photo, but they have a lovely subtle shimmer.
I'm linking up to these challenges:
