Sweet Girl

I am an avid follower of Prima.  Early this month, they posted the December Prima Product Pick and Palette and this one shows the colors to follow:

I love these Christmas colors!  They add joy to this special day not to mention the family gatherings and gift-giving.  I can't help but create a layout showcasing the above colors and this one's my masterpiece...

Wondering how I did the vine on the right side of the layout?  

I cut it from the Folio paper (under Printery Collection).  It was black.  Hence, I...

1.  traced the vine with a light brown paint 

2.  second coating was dark brown paint

3.  the top was finished with red, green and gold glitters

...  then viola!  It became a gorgeous embellishment!

I apologize for not providing a bigger screenshot.  I'll post it by next week.
