Dazzling Diva Challenge #12

Happy Wednesday, I do hope that you are excited that there is a new challenge over at Add A Little Dazzle. This week we have a inspirational photo to inspire your crafting.....

From this gorgeous image I took the wreath, colours (although my finished piece ended up a little darker than I first imagined) and the shape and colour of those cute little bell-like flowers.....

For the background layer I used a piece of the Black Diamond AALD sheet and embossed it using the Couture Creations 'Lovingly Baroque'. After it was embossed I used my silver Stazon over the embossing, this caught the raised image.. although it did catch a lot on the un-bossed part of the pattern I still liked the effect. 

The beautiful wreath and sentiment come from the Wplus9 set 'Valentine Wishes' and it just looks fab in this chalkboard style. For the raised ribbon banner I used the silver side of a metal sheet and stamped onto in using black Stazon. 

Please go over to the Add A Little Dazzle blog and take part, there is fab package up for grabs. Also don't forget to check out my fellow teamies and take a peek at the gorgeous projects they came up with. Also also don't forget to stock up on the Add A Little Dazzle metal sheets from the store so you too can join me on the journey of metal crafting perfection. 

Have a great day.
