The next few weeks are going to be very busy & I won't have much crafting or computer time. Did get my PTI MIM card done--really fun! I knew about this technique, but don't think I'd ever gotten around to doing it. As soon as I saw Laurie's video, I had in mind using Snowflake Flurries. Played around with various colors & decided on red, aqua & silver--one of my newer favorites for Christmas. My inks are Memento Love Letter & PTI Aqua Mist. I used a strip of DCWV silver glitter paper & added dots of silver Stickles. The tiny trio of dots is from PTI Harvest Berries & the sentiment from snowflake Flurries is black embossed.
Luckily I found matching twine in the bottom of my storage bin. May have to make more of these with different colors & maybe try flowers. I did use some scraps so will enter at The Playground.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I'll catch up with you when I can--don't think you're forgotten.
