Hello
It's been such a busy time of year but I wanted to get a chance to post this card before the holiday season was over.
I created a very simple design and wanted to use as many of the snowflakes from the First Snow set by Penny Black as I could with this sentiment.
I began by die cutting the Jumbo JOY letters also from Penny Black, onto some scrap paper to use as a mask. I applied some repositionable adhesive to the back of the letters and stuck them down.
Next, I placed the piece into my Misti and stamped the snowflakes all over the masked area.
When I was happy with the coverage, I rubbed over the center area with some Peacock Feathers DOX ink, then removed the masks.
To help add more interest, I added some blue Nuvo drops to the center of the snowflakes.
I mounted the finished front onto a piece of blue cardstock, then onto a heavy white card base.
Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look.

I love the effect - great card Karen
I love this card, Karen! Beautifully made, love the technique. The Nuvo drops and layers add great texture. Fabulous!
Great idea to mask your sentiment and then stamp -- wonderful card!
This is very pretty Karen and love the Peacock Feathers ink over the beautiful snowflakes and the masked letters left white really stand out. x
great card for mass producing at Christmas, love the colours and the sprinkle of snowflakes :)
A stunning card Karen. Initially I thought the word JOY was a die cut. That is fabulous masking.
