Snowflakes are the fairydust of winter....


Hello everyone,
Good (Monday)morning everyone, Yvonne here sharing  another Christmas project with you all.
I realized it'll be Christmas before we know (how time flies!) so...a great time to get started on making those Christmas cards.
And.... with Quietfire Christmas stamps are on sale with 30% off it's the perfect time to buy yourself some gorgeous Quietfire stamps!

This Christmas card is really quick and easy to re-create.
The cardbase measures 5x7 inch and layered upon (sanded) silver and a skyblue cardstock.
Quietfire's "Snowflakes are the fairydust of winter" (#6246) sentiment was stamped upon the cardbase using Jet black Archival ink.

 

The white border is die-cut using Spellbinders Borderabilities A2 Scalloped Borders Two (S5-214).
After die-cutting, the paper was embossed using a snowflake embossingfolder.
To emphasize the sentiment I chose to die-cut some  snowflakes from DCWV Glizy Glitter covered cardstock.
Upon the snowflakes some self- adhesive Pearls were glued.
And finally some stripes of glitter-glue to get that extra ice effect.

I hope the card  inspires to get Christmas-crafty.


Thanks for stopping by and...have a nice day!

Yvonne

I LOVE THIS CARD! I want to copy the layout of it, and make it a tad smaller to fit on a standard sized card. I love snowflakes, silver and blue, so this will be fun for me :)
