I'm getting a REALLY early head start on the Christmas Card Video series LOL! I decided today's card(s) would start off the series (rather than put them into my regular Making a Card Videos) since they ARE Christmas-themed!
I'll be jumping back and forth between Halloween Series, Christmas Series, and all my regular Making a Card Series for the next several weeks! I try to keep everything categorized into their proper places in the sidebar on the right here on my blog, and link to any previous posts in a series at the end of the post so everyone can find them!
Anywho - on to the card!
I'm using the new Lots of Snowflakes stamp set and Christmas Blessings dies from Simon Says Stamp's newest STAMPtember release.
I used Distress Inks (Broken China, Peacock Feathers, Seedless Preserves, Dusty Concord) to create the bright background for the snowflakes, and coated the die cut sentiment with Wink of Stella Black and a couple of layers of clear embossing powder to make it shiny.
I kept the inside simple and just stamped the same snowflakes from the set with the same Distress Ink colors I'd used on the front.
I had a good sized piece of this watercolor background left over from the first card so of course I had to make a second one!
This time I die cut the sentiment from MFT Sno Cone card stock, and coated it with Clear Wink of Stella, and no embossing.
And then finishing the inside similar to the first card.
