Santa Brought Me a Snowflake

The Jingle Belles challenge is "Look What Santa Brought Me".  I got a new snowflake stamp I've been wanting for awhile.


On coated cs, I created a blue background with blue Brushos and a bit of silver Magicals spritzed with water.  When dry, I stamped and heat embossed the snowflake in white.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
I trimmed the panel and popped it up on fun foam.  I added a small heat embossed sentiment banner and embellished with a few sequins.

It's a very quick and easy card that would work well for making multiples.  And I do love that new snowflake stamp!






Supplies:
Stamps - Visible Image "Snow is Falling", A Muse sentiment
Ink - ColorBox white
Paper - coated cs, white and black cs
Size - 4.75" square
Accessories - various blue Brushos, silver Magicals, white embossing powder, sequins, fun foam

    What an amazing blue Blusho and silver Magical background you created, Susan!
    The big white heat-embossed snowflake looks awesome! Actually, it even looks silver-ish in the picture.
    A few sparking sequins are a perfect finishing touch. Looking forward to seeing more cards you're going to make with this new snowflake stamp. :-)

    Love your new snowflake stamp, Susan. Your background on this is just amazing! What a glorious combination of colors on that and I'm sure the sparkle in real life from the Magicals make it even more spectacular.
