Snowy Holiday Greetings

Welcome

Today's card has a very frosty look to it featuring the newly released stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called:

Flake Explosion

So, here's what I did to create my card.

• I began by embossing a piece of white cardstock using the Burlap EB folder.
• I placed the Flake Explosion stencil over the embossed background and inked it up with some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink.  I added some Uncharted Mariner DOX ink just to the center of the snowflakes to give them more interest.
• I removed the stencil and used the Hemstitch die to cut out the middle area creating a frame.
• I stamped the sentiment with more of the Uncharted Mariner DOX ink and die cut it out.
• I glued the stenciled card front onto a piece of navy cardstock and then onto an A2 sized white card base.
• I used some foam tape to add the sentiment and finally, I added 3 silver gems under the sentiment.

Here is the stencil I used:
