I've had this SSS Snowflake Block die cut laying on my desk for a couple weeks. I had soaked up the Distress Inks from smooshing projects on scraps of cardstock & watercolor paper & added a bit of Ken Oliver Color Burst. The other pieces are waiting to be used, but I cut this from the watercolor piece the same day. Finally decided to use it for a thank you I need. The die cut is backed with a piece of Heidi Swapp glitter paper & the front of the card is embossed with my new Darice snowflake folder which I'd wanted forever & finally got with a coupon. The thanks die is also new--part of a big sale at the end of the year. It's by Elizabeth Crafts & I love it's small size & how easy it cuts. I stacked several & clear embossed the top one. This design would work for Christmas cards with a different sentiment & it's flat for mailing! I'm entering these challenges: SSS Flickr, AAA Cards & Happy Little Stampers CAS. I so appreciate your visit--thank you.

ReplyDeleteGreta, this is so pretty. I love the snowflakes.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind seeing some snowflakes right about now. Our temperatures have been in the 80s. That's just a little too warm for JANUARY.
This is sooo pretty! Your snowflakes are gorgeous, great job with the smooshing. Thank you for joining in at Happy Little Stampers.
