Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger - Winter White

Another fabulous Moxie Fab Trigger Tuesday challenge.  Who doesn't love winter white?  I have been searching for the perfect winter white wool coat this season but haven't found it yet.  I'll keep looking!

One word - fabulous!  The tone on tone, the intricacy of the flowers - it's just sheer perfection.  Here's my interpretation.

 

Inspired by the tone-on-tone and the flowers, I used off-white cardstock for my base.  I had a piece of taupe cardstock with a swirl pattern on it and I embossed that to use as a textural strip down the side.  I sprayed the embossed piece (heavily) with some Glitter Mist to add bling.

 I've never tried the rolled up paper flowers technique so I chose some pretty purples and gave it a whirl (from memory).  Not perfect, but I think a good first try.  I distressed the edges of the flowers a bit, added a pearl for the centers, and used a branch Martha Stewart punch to add a little sprig of green on either side of the flower trio.

I'm pleased with how it turned out.  It's very soft and quiet, which I think captures the essence of winter white.

Awesome challenge!  Thanks for stopping by!
