Hello everyone. I have a card to share inspired by several challenges:

I started this card by taking a light blue piece of card and using a Simon Says Stamp snowflake embossing folder. I then ran – very gently – a white pigment ink pad over the top to bring out some of the embossing d3etails on the snowflakes.
This panel was then cut down slightly so I could a have a thin white border around when attached to the card base.
I then used some Pinkesh Studio snowflakes and die cut them out of vellum, attaching with a little tape runner to the blue panel, and adding gold gems to the centre of each snowflake.

The final step was to add the gold foiled sentiment.

I shall be entering the following challenges:
Seize The Birthday – birthday with the option of snowflake background taken
Addicted To Stamp & More – birthdays
AAA Birthday – winter birthday
Sparkles Monthly Challenge – snowflakes




A really beautiful card Lou. I love the soft, delicate design and your vellum snowflakes are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing with us at AAA Birthday for our ‘winter birthday’ challenge. Hugs, Denise x

That soft blue embossed background is just stunning! I love how you’ve subtly shown off the snowflakes. And the sentiment has just the right amount of shine added to the card. Thank you so much for joining us at the Seize the Birthday and the Addicted to Stamps & More challenges!
