Hello, crafting friends!
Last week I posted THIS snowflake card. The colour combination was inspired by Nancy's palette at CAS Colours and Sketches but I felt my card wasn't clean and simple enough for that challenge. So I made another one today :)
This one uses the same snowflakes (from Dies by Chloe) and stars (from the retired Stampin' Up Twinkle punch) but there's no stenciling, I used only one of the Nordic Frames (from the Greetery) and the sentiment is much smaller.
I heat embossed the sentiment in silver, cut it out with the small frame die, and attached it to a card base. The snowflakes and stars were arranged above and below the sentiment and I added a few drops of silver liquid pearls to link them.
CHALLENGES
Just squeaking in at CAS Colours and Sketches colour challenge *waves to my former teamies there* ; I'm also linking up with Perfectly CAS where the current challenge is Festive - and as always we are asked to use up to a third of the card front.
AND IN OTHER NEWS
Today's card would make a perfect note card for this weather if only I had a sentiment that said 'Sending Cooling Wishes'! After I press send on this post, I'm off to the supermarkety; I don't actually need anything - I just want to hang out in the freezer aisle!
You achieved such a different look using fewer elements Vicky,a beautiful elegant card
ReplyDeleteLove this CAS festive snowflakes card.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea about the supermarket!!! Xxx
Love the die, the snowflakes and how you used the colours Vicky. A Stupendous card. As for the Supermarket, some of our freezers are down and empty, they've given up under the heat! Unusual for Wales hahaha

ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful, Vicky. You really are the queen of CAS!
ReplyDeleteWell done Mrs. Vicky! I love your cooling, soothing card creation. I may just go hang out in the freezer aisle of a grocery store near me as well - however that could also lead to some unwise purchases! Miss you, your creations and humor! Thanks for joining us at CC&S
