Day 15 of Holiday Cards in October

Today begins the series of holiday cards using the Work of Art stamp set. I really had fun with this set.  I went with a soft background and a deep embossed tree for this design.  I thought the contast really made the tree pop.  To make the background I used two colors - Pool Party and Soft Sky.  Soft Sky is towards the top -- the first three; they're in different generations to get the lighter and darker shades.  The bottom three are Pool Party -- again in different generations for the varying shades.  The gold "ornaments" on the tree are dots of Gold  Dazzling Detail.  The sentiment is from Snow Place
