MERRY SNOWFLAKE

Do you have any Stampin' Up! Glimmer Paper in a bluish tone? Do you have a beautiful detailed snowflake die?

Combine the two to make a stunning, but easy card!


To add interest to an otherwise boring piece of white cardstock for the snowflake to rest upon, I used a retired snowflake embossing folder on a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of white cardstock. Once it was embossed, I gently sponged Coastal Cabana ink over the raised surface of the snowflakes. This seemed to bring it all together, and add a bit of interesting dimension.


To complete this lovely snowflake, I added an Iridescent Rhinestone to the center of it. 
I love the way the rhinestone picks up the glorious Coastal Cabana color 
and looks as if it truly is a part of the snowflake.


Here in Wisconsin we are getting snow dumped on us regularly. I know it's not nearly what some parts of the country have been experiencing, but we definitely are getting our share, with more to come.. Truthfully, all this snow has made the outside look like a winter wonderland. The trees are so gorgeous, especially when the sun shines on them, making the snow glisten. It simply takes one's breath away. We will definitely be having a white Christmas!

  1. That is a lovely card! We were supposed to have a white Christmas this year but our skies have turned rainy instead so we're having a wet, muddy Christmas this year instead.
