I used one of Lil' Inker's snowflake dies to die cut a single snowflake from silver cardstock for my focal image. It's attached to the top of the turquoise panel with foam tape. A big clear crystal at the center of the flake gives it even more sparkle and shine. I stamped one of the sentiments from the Winter Greetings stamp set beneath the snowflake in silver ink--it didn't photograph well, but it looks so pretty IRL!
The blue panel is broken up by a narrow strip of silver cardstock adhered along its left side. I wrapped the strip with some shiny silver cord to add some texture to the design. I adhered the finished panel to a light blue card base. I almost went with a dark purple base, but decided to go with the light blue to make it easier to write on the inside of the card.
Materials Used:
Winter Greetings stamp set, Snowflakes dies (Lil' Inker Designs); Turquoise Sea cardstock (Gina K Designs); Sea Glass cardstock (Avery Elle); Sterling Silver cardstock (Clear and Simple Stamps); silver cord, clear crystal (Michaels); foam tape
Silver and turquoise are so pretty together! Love your wintery take on the sketch!
