Diggin on Damask

The current challenge at Moxie Fab world is using damask- since I LOVE damask, I had to play!!! :)
Here's my first go:

PTI vintage cream base, ocean tides cardstock, text impression plate, tree die. Sentiment is Hero Arts. Versafine black ink, black paper from my stasth (ie it's so old I can't tell you where it's from!) The rest is LUSH. Yummo, right?! Lush is the name of the line from My Mind's Eye.

That paper is FLOCKED in black! I've got several views because I want you to see how amazing that paper is!!! That pretty ribbon is also from the MME Lush line.

And so is the bling! :)

I cut the tree out of the damask paper then layered it on top of the ocean tides- then layered both of those on top of the black. I think the overall effect is very elegant- and I wanted a non-traditional color scheme. What do you think? I'd love to hear!! Head over to Moxie Fab World to see the other entries!
Wee Memories challenge is 'anything goes' so I'll add this there too! :)

  4. Have you recovered from cutting into that beautiful paper?! Love the way you layered. Do you mind if I copy you? I hope not, cause I'm probably going to.

    So pretty - It just makes me swoon.
