It's been a while since I entered the Merry Monday challenge and when I sat down to make a card for it this was not what I intended! This one sort of came out of nowhere! But I kind of like it!! As well as snowflakes you had to use blue, silver/grey and white.
I used the Festive Flurry stamp set which had only just arrived. I wasn't going to buy it as I have two previous snowflake sets but then when I saw what other people were making with it I succumbed - again!! It's a very simple card - I stamped the largest snowflake in the centre with Versamark and embossed it with Pool Party. I used the second smallest for the corners and embossed in silver. Then stamped the smallest twice and embossed one in Pool Party and one in Silver. The Pool Party one I fussy cut down so just the middle was used and layered them up in the middle. Finally I added one of the Frosted Finished embellishments for a bit of sparkle. I was surprised at how weighty these are but it still stuck down well.
You can order from my online shop at anytime or email me if you prefer the personal touch .
This is beautiful in its simplicity! I love that all the snowflakes are embossed. I too succumbed to this stamp set. It was just too much fun to pass up! TFS.
