My computer doesn't like the link to the full reveal Astrid, but can see enough to see there is Ivy which I always love using on work and that's a really gorgeous sentiment font.

Your sneak peek looks very intriguing ... What a beautiful card you created! I love the deep blue colour palette and seeing the faded layers technique 😁. The embellishments and Stampendous Vintage Silver embossing powder look so pretty too - perfect! Wishing you a lovely week! J 😊

Astrid, I've just been over to see this beauty, and left you some love there. But I had to come by to tell you you have nailed this technique and made it in your very own wonderful style that I adore! I love that bit of embossing on the edges...looks perfectly vintage! Where does one get that fabulous copper kraft core; I've never seen it before!? That's moving to the top of my wish list! Hugs!

Just back from the link and your step by step process video. Thank you for sharing the techniques used to achieve this stand out card. Love the effect of the alcohol inks on yupo and the embossed edges. Gorgeous. Happy Christmas from down under. x

Beautiful Astrid! Your blue tones alcohol ink background is so amazing, like a windy winter day with flurries! Your trailing vine is wonderful, and that sweet angel in her winter coat is such a great image! LOVE the gilded edges! A fabulous design for a holiday card! hugs :)

Well, at some point when there's some time I'm clearly going to have to give these Faded Layers a go... even though each of you has said you've struggled, the effect is really cool.

Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!
