Good Morning.
Do you need some ideas for simple cardmaking as the big day gets closer.
This card fits that bill.
I used the Embossing Folders inking technique to do the background.
Rub a water based ink onto your embossing folder, spritz with water and press your paper into the wet ink and remove. The Peacock Feather DOX gave such a lovely impression.
When that was dry, I played the piece into my Misti and stamped the sentiment from MFT.
Added the SSS die-cut snowflake and popped up the center for interest and added drops of Nuvo to finish off my card.
Wishing you a happy day as you get ready for the holidays.
Thanks so much for the visit.

I had to sit right down and try this before I commented, Karen. I've done it before but not with Oxides and wanted to see how it would come out. Your snowflakes look lovely with Peacock Feathers and I love the addition of the larger die cut one.
I love that blizzard of beautiful snowflakes. What a fantastic card design.
Great idea for a quick last minute card - and I definitely need some of those as I'm behind!! Beautiful shades of blue!
I am in LOVE!! Such a pretty card!!
Gorgeous card Karen x
This ink on embossing folder technique had worked well using this pretty snowflake design Karen, and the Peacock Feathers oxide ink is such a intense and pretty blue, also I adore the large die cut snowflake over the top and the Nuvo drop in the centre is the perfect match. I love the black sentiment which stands out beautiifully too. x
one of my favorite techniques, love the card and the crisp white snowflake :)
So simple to construct, by eye catching and elegant
