Snowflake Tag


Hello and Welcome
Meet today's card.
Very clean and simple but has an elegant feel to it with the silver snowflakes.

So here's what I did.
I began with a piece of white cardstock and stenciled the background using this great stencil 
called Simple Mosaic and some gray Memento ink.
Next, I cut the tag using a die from Avery Elle and set it aside.  I die-cut 2 snowflakes from Penny Black, pressed them onto my Versamark pad and heat embossed them with silver powder.  I glued the smaller one over the larger one to give more of a substantial look to the snowflake.  Love how it turned out.  I glued them onto the tag and added a drop of Silver Nuvo Drops to the center.  
I pop-dotted the finished tag over the stenciled bkg. then added some silver twine.
The sentiment was stamped using my Misti.  It is a new stamp set from Penny Black 
called Christmas Sentiments and I have to tell you, I am getting so much use from this set!  The 
sentiments are different sizes and different fonts, many straight line sentiments which work great with this kind of a card.



Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
