Have a Merry Christmas

Good Morning everyone

Another Christmas card design.  I made a snowflake stenciled background for my large die cut snowflakes.

Card size approx 6x6.5"  I first die cut my hexagon base from white card and then a smaller hexagon from more of the white card.  On this panel i used a snowflake stencil mask and distress oxide inks in shades of blues, greens & lilacs and then added some splatters.  I Then over stamped with the same inks & grey ink the words winter, Dec & 25 aall&create 'seasons' set, inked the edge in grey and adhered to the card front.

I die cut a large snowflake from white vellum and pale lilac glitter card, off set these and adhered to the card front.  Sentiment die cut from charcoal satin mirror card card.  Sadly the photos don't pick up the shimmer and shine from both the glitter card and mirror cards but in real life they really make the card when the light hits it. 

Version 2 

Made the same way but this time using silver holographic card for the snowflake ad black mirror card for the sentiment.  I made 10 versions of this design and a great one for making a dent in my fancy card scraps drawer where i keep off cuts of glitter, mirror, satin card!  So they are all slightly different.  

I only glued the middle of the snowflakes so the edges are free to give a bit of interest and dimension otherwise its a flat card - always a mission for me!

I hope you all survived Storm Bert without too much damage, we did lose electric for several hours and luckily didn't need to venture out in it, on the plus side i guess is that its much warmer than all that snow last week!  I hope you all have a good week - scary that its the last week in November! Big hugs to you all. Emmax
