Running late today, struggling to get into the Christmas Card zone, to be honest. Plus, I made quite a few cards last year using snowflakes, so had to think of something new! Christine chose this first theme of the year for us.
I managed four in the end, and as I made a Masterboard, I have plenty left over to do some more.
These panels were trimmed from the Masterboard,and matted onto dark blue card. I initially cut the sentiment from the same dark blue cardstock, but when I came to add it, realised it vanished into the background, so swapped it for white. The die is a Sue Wilson one.
Went for Eclipse cards next, replacing the O in snow with a layered snowflake.
This time I stamped a strip of white cardstock with a random assortment of snowflakes, using Brilliance Pearlescent blue.
Last of the four and again a panel from the Masterboard, and a layered snowflake, the snowflake die is another Sue Wilson one, it's lovely, but it's a real pain to cut well!
This was the masterboard I made, a random selection of snowflakes again, stamped in Clair Medieval Blue and Silver Encore and heat embossed with Crystal EP. Given a few spritzes of a blue Mica spray, an old one from That Special Touch. The original blue was quite dark, so I mixed some White Pearl with it in a Mini Mister, and gave it a couple of sprays, then added a couple of drops of Blueprint Sketch re inker to it to give me a slightly darker shade.
