Flourishes FTTC238 - Let It Shine

Happy Tuesday everyone!

It's time for a new Timeless Tuesday Challenge at Flourishes!  This week's challenge FTTC238 is:


 "Let It Shine" - Incorporate a light source in your card: a candle, lamp, lighthouse, the sun, or even a shiny element.---anything, as long as you "Let It Shine!".

For my card, I used the Christmas Candles Set!





(Click on photo for a closer view)

I love this beautiful Christmas set!  The image and sentiment were stamped on Solar White Cardstock and colored with pencils and mineral spirits.    I also stamped, colored, and fussy cut an extra little piece of berries and holly to put next to the sentiment.  Here's a little close up of the image:

This was then die cut with Decorative Labels 8 and sponged with Wheat Chalk Ink while still in the die.  I popped this on a double mat of burgundy and green cardstock with Moss Twill wraped around it.  This was then popped on a white cardbased made the Labels 23 Grand Dies.  I finished this off with some pearls, bow made with Moss Micro Gingham Ribbon and a button with floss threaded in it.

Be sure to visit the Flourishes' Designers to see their gorgeous creations for the challenge this week!
