Glenda Waterworth, the designer, has challenged all who have bought the CDs to print something off and create with it, instead of just stroking the papers:). I printed off an approximation of 4 seasons with my first four sheets and chose this stunning and subtle wintry scene to play with first. I was aiming for a stark and simple card with black and silver mirri card matting. When I tried this it looked really, really stark - downright funereal - and not at all how I'd intended it. So I added some Stickles to the trees, added a scarlet layer of matting card and used some metallic red thread to attach a tree charm. That's better!
I think you might be seeing a lot more of these delicious papers in the near future:)
It looks a stunning CD, Anne. I have been seriously tempted too but might have to ask Santa!! It works brilliantly with the tall trees stamps doesn't it. I love how you've coordinated everything and that little charm is gorgeous.
