Hello Crafty Friends!!!

Today I am popping in with a card for the NEW round of the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge!!! Challenge #632 is a THEME challenge. Create a project using the theme-LET IT SNOW.

Yes, it is a Christmas card but I am once again working on new ones for next year. It is never too early to start!!

Though I rarely use the colors from the challenge badge, I decided to use them for this card. I started off by embossing a piece of Spellbinders Breeze cardstock with my favorite embossing folder by Simon Says Stamp!-Filigree Snowflakes.

I added some snowflakes from my stash. I am not sure what companies they are from as I have an OBSESSION with buying snowflake dies and die cut them all at once in one sitting.

My sentiment is from Sunny Studios. I used a shade darker ink from the background cardstock to color it in. I then covered the die cut in glossy accents. The black sentiment banner is from my stash. 

To finish my card, I adhered some white jewels randomly on the background.

Hello Friends!!!

Today I am popping in with a card for the NEW round of the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge!!! Challenge #631 is a COLOR challenge-MAROON and GOLD.

I had so much fun creating my card using the Spellbinders Delivering Joy Sleigh Die and scraps of paper. I love creating a card that uses up my scraps!

I started off by using the Folk Art Background die from Waffle Flower Crafts to create the card background. I die cut the panel using Waffle Flower Crafts A2 Additional Piercing Layers die and used a Distress Tool to distress the edges.

I had fun tying a bow using Altnew gold Metallic Thread.

I had fun creating a mixed media background. I used a bunch of different stamps, stencils and Distress Ink for my panel.

I distressed the edges and added some corrugated cardboard on the side. I used the Penny Black Hydrangeas Stamp Set/Dies, the Penny Black Sprinkles Stamps/Dies with some Altenew Watercolor for my images.

My sentiment is from The Greetery All Occasions Script Sentiments set. My last element was to use some white Nuvo Drops in the center of the flowers and a little bit on the cardboard. I LOVE how this came out!!
