So for today I have 2 cards to share using this set.
First up is one that uses the large frame image. For this card I stamped the frame image with Melon Mambo ink and cut it out and mounted it onto Always Artichoke cs. Then I stamped the sentiment with Artichoke ink and cut it out with a Nestabilitie Die brushed Melon Mambo ink around the edges, then stamped the snowflakes with Cool Caribbean ink and added a tiny jewel to the center of the middle snow flake.Next I embossed a white panel with the Swiss Dot embossing folder, added designer paper (Basic Grey), some ribbon (May Arts) and 2 snowflake brads that I added glitter to.
My second card is really a different design for me but I like it. A big shout out to Michelle Woerner for the wonderful layout idea. She has a set of cards here using this layout. I love how fun and easy this was to make (except for losing my circle die and taking an hour before I found it).
Card Base, Whisper White. All Designer paper from Basic Grey (Figgy Pudding lines from 2 different years.)
I stamped the Scroll image with Bravo Burgundy ink and the sentiment and snowflakes with Cool Caribbean ink. Other colors of card stock used: Pear Pizzaz, Basic Gray. Other items used: Silver Sprinkles and Tiny jewels on the snowflakes and silver cording.
So if you like this set and want a chance to win it, start hopping!
See you back in a couple of days for another sneak peak.
