I had a modern shabby chic look in mind with lots of gold and watercolored elements. I think it turned out pretty close to what I had in mind- with a few extra splatters of gold mist! Sometimes you just can't control that stuff! Hee!
Of course, the Fill In The Blank dies and stamp sets are from Avery Elle. I used the Stampin' Up! Watercolor Wonder DSP for my diecuts- the watercolored papers are so pretty in this collection! The gold ink is my favorite- Delicata Golden Glitz. If you don't have this, you need it! I used Heidi Swapp Color Shine in Gold Lame and Georgia Peach for my splattering and the sequins are from Teresa Collins Designs Santa's List collection.
I'm so glad I found time to play along with the challenge- it's Avery Elle's first on their new AEI♥U Challenge blog. So fun!
Well, I better wrap this up- Downton Abbey is on in just a few minutes now. I can't believe it's already the season finale! The season went by so fast- I wish it was a little longer!
Hope you have a great week!
