I have a Christmas card to share today, made using one of the stamps from the 'Snowflake Edges' set (by Simon Says Stamp) that I got recently with a Simon Says Stamp Challenge prize. I use my stamping platform to stamp the snowflakes along one edge of a snippet of watercolour effect paper from the 'Mystery Marbles' pad by Craft Sensations, using Versamark Ink, and heat embossed it with a white detail embossing powder from Cosmic Shimmers. I then flipped it round and did the same along the opposite edge. I distressed the edges a little, then added the panel to a DL card blank. For the sentiment, I used a Creative Expressions die, cutting it three times from snippets of white card, then carefully layering them up to make a 'chunky', more 3D sentiment, then added that over the centre of the card.

ReplyDeleteThat's a very pretty CAS Christmas card. Very delicate - the edge snowflakes lead your eye to the lovely sentiment.
