This week we are welcoming the lovely Claudia aka Von Pappe 11  into the Designer Spotlight. If you haven't visited her blog before then you are in for a real treat!

I made a New Year Card using a Darkroom Door Alphabet Medley Stamp Set


For the background I tore some Peackock and Watercolor Paper and coloured with Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Ink. I then used an acetate Brutus Monroe Winter Wonder Foil Toner Sheet and Heidi Swapp Teal and Silver Ombre Foil to create the overlay, so pretty IRL ;-)

The strip of striped paper was originally black and white, I coloured with a BG49 Copic Marker


and I used a leftover scrap of paper to decorate the envelope 




Thanks for looking :-)
