I have a Christmas card to share today...in a colour combination I don't use very often...burgundy and gold. I trimmed an A4 piece of card down to make a DL sized card, and then cut snowflake shapes into the offcut using some of the 'Mini Paper Snowflakes' dies. I added a sentiment from a Ranger set called 'Letter It - Christmas'...heat embossing it using 'Metallic Gold Sparkle' powder by WOW. I mounted it over a snippet of god glitter card using some 3D foam pads, then matted it on to a piece of gold mirror card.
Challenges for this card:
- CAS Christmas - Snowflake
- Crafty hazelnut's Christmas - Anything Christmas Goes
- Crazy 4 Challenges - Christmas in July
- Cut It Up - Christmas in July
- Little Red Wagon - Christmas
- Happy Little Stampers (CAS) - Use Negative Space

- Happy Little Stampers (Dies) - Anything Goes with Dies
