Hello once again. A new challenge has started at The Alphabet Challenge. Dawn has chosen the theme of ‘silver’. Here is my card:

For this card, I new I wanted to use the Tim Holtz/Sizzix 3D embossing and cutting folder again. That was the first thing I did for this card – and that snowflake came out beautifully using some Simon Says Stamp holographic card stock.

I was hunting through my previously created backgrounds- I do like a background creating session, especially if it involves Distress inks or Distress Oxid3es – I can go a little crazy. I have also recently started to use the Distress Spray Stains. This green background was using one of the new Mica spray stains – though the shine doesn’t show in the photo (so difficult to capture this time round) and I thought the green background – looking quite distressed itself – a little white space – would be perfect for allowing the snowflake to stand out.

After I had put the card together, I realised that the concentrated green at the bottom actually looks like a row of trees – do you think so too?

I hope you can come and join us with your ‘silver’ creations – I look forward to seeing you in our gallery. xx
