The cold spell has inspired my snowflake card today. I have used the Christmas Lights stamp and die bundle to die cut several snowflakes from the Tahitian Tide 2022-24 In Colour Glimmer paper. The glimmer paper has ombré shading from blue to white so the snowflakes vary in colour.
I adhered the Wonderful Snowflake embellishment to the larger snowflake die cut and to my surprise I found that it sits perfectly on top! I popped a blue Fine Sparkle adhesive backed Gem to the centre of the snowflake. On the back I adhered some Balmy Blue & White double-stitched ribbon.
The large snowflake was adhered to a circle shape die cut from the Storybook Gnomes DSP. Smaller snowflakes were adhered with glue dots and blue adhesive backed sequins added to the centre of each one.
The sentiment from the Brightest Glow stamp set is stamped with Pacific Point ink on Basic White card stock. This was then die cut using the oval frame from the Fabulous Frames die set. I adhered a few more gems and sequins to the bottom of the card.
The inside of the card is stamped with the Christmas greeting and another snowflake this time stamped and die cut. A strip of the same DSP used on the front is adhered at the bottom.

Thanks for stopping by and here’s to warmer weather around the corner! Have a great week ahead everyone!
This is a very pretty card, Rosa. The variation in colour of the glimmery snowflakes is lovely, as is your choice of gems and sequins for your card. Nice use of blues!

DeleteYour card is so pretty, Rosa! The snowflakes look fantastic, and how awesome that they layer perfectly.
ReplyDeleteGreat inspiration for your card Rosa, can't wait for the warmer weather to arrive myself! I love your combination of the blues and the layout is great with the circle, oval and snowflakes all complimenting each other! Very pretty and lovely card!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful snowflake card Rosa. Your use of blues with the snowflakes is delightful. Thanks for pointing out the complementary sizing of the snowflakes. Xxx
ReplyDeleteOh I love all your varying shades of blue, Rosa and the softness of the layered snowflakes. I'm so excited about the layering of the wonderful snowflakes because I have just purchased those dies and you've inspired me to layer them after seeing your gorgeous card.
ReplyDeleteYou are not wrong with it being chilly and what great inspiration for your snowflake card. The glitter paper is gorgeous for your large snowflake with the white Snowflake embellishment layered on top. The pretty ribbon behind it, looks great too!
ReplyDeleteOh Rosa I really love this break away from the traditional colours of Christmas. Your card is just lovely.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Rosa. All the elements work so well together and I love the addition of the ribbon and the large snowflake diecut from the glimmer paper. Such an unexpected colour choice that works so well.
