I had a custom card order last week that seemed a perfect fit for this edition of Moxie Fab World's Tuesday Trigger: Beads & Baubles, which ends on November 13. Check out this Trigger photo:
I was particularly inspired by the colours & layout, and the pearls made a perfect accent. The yellow flower gave me the push to use yellow letters for the recipient's name, and I added Clear Glaze pen (two layers) to give them some jewel shine. I included gold by punching the branches from some handmade gold paper that's been in my stash for a really long time.
Here's a close-up of the flower arrangement, and the shine of the letters:
So far this week I've made 22 cards - and usually Friday is my most productive day, and it'll be a Christmas card blitz, so I can hardly wait! And since Sunday is my birthday, I bet I could play with paper most of the day then too...just picture me rubbing my hot little hands together with glee :)
