Last week's challenge certainly resulted in another round of very creative cards. Well done everyone.
This weeks challenge theme is Snowflakes!! I know there are many wonderful stamps and dies available for these beautiful wee structures, so I am certain there will be more fabulous creations for this Merry Monday Challenge.
For my card I white embossed some snowflake stamps on the white background, then I gently 'smooshed' a little colour over the top using Distress and other dye inks. I made sure not to cover the white background completely so the colour remained vibrant. I used dies and a punch to make the 'popped-up' snowflakes.
Stamps: Inkadinkadoo 'Snowflakes-a-Plenty', Merry Christmas (Microsoft Publisher)
Dies: Spellbinder Create A Flake Four, snowflake and circle punches
Inks: Hero Arts White Embossing powder, Versamark, Distress and Memento inks
Other: Silver yarn, buttons, rhinestones
Have a very creative week.
Thanks for visiting.
