I used my Mini MISTI to stamp the silver sentiment & get it dark enough. The die cut snowflake was also done with the MISTI so I could stamp it multiple times with both colors. I covered it with Wink of Stella, clear embossed & finished with a silver glitter Nuvo Drop.
Not sure I'll actually send this one, but it was fun to try something different. I've already started another one using the rest of that 8 1/2 x 11 piece of cardstock--can't let it go to waste! I'm also entering Rudolph Days.
PTI Stamp A Faire starts today--always fun with so many challenges to try. I have a fun event tomorrow, but will still have plenty of time to play along as the deadline isn't until Aug. 31. We don't get hurricanes or tornadoes (very few)--one reason we love it here. I can't imagine what so many people are dealing with today as Harvy approaches the US & pray everyone stays safe. Thanks so much for taking time to stop by.
You used one of our old favorites, Snowflake Flurries, yay! Hero Arts blog has a card today that would be easy to replicate with this same set. I'm gonna try it sometime soon.

ReplyDeleteyour z fold is so pretty in all the blues and violets with the silver - really lovely Greta.
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card with the soft colours and fun fold. It looks great to me, absolutely good enough to send and make someone's day.

ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely and very creative card. Very pretty indeed!
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking part in the August Rudolph Days Challenge.
Great card Greta. You did well.
ReplyDeleteApologies for being MIA, Greta; lots of changes happening, including moving to a new house in a new town and making the decision not to teach any longer. That, along with travel/bike race officiating/diploma exam marking...and just 'everything' sees me just a bit overwhelmed! Please know that while I may miss comments, I NEVER miss one of your cards and ALWAYS love seeing your creativity! This one: WOW! A technique I've not tried and one you've aced in the most beautiful way!
ReplyDeleteHugs~c
