Season's Greetings

Hi Bloggers.

Sue and I are heading down to Taunton today ahead of our weekend of workshops and demos at Craftasmic. It's a ticketed event and is completely sold out so please don't head down there unless you have a ticket. I am, however, in the shop till 3pm on Saturday on hand to answer any questions you may have on any of our products.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I started by stamping a couple of the snowflakes from the Justrite Snowflakes Stamp Set using Faded Jeans and Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. I covered it with a piece of Creative Expressions Double Sided Self Adhesive Sheet and then added Glacier Ice Cosmic Shimmer Glitter Jewels.

I made some coloured embossing powder by mixing some Harebell Mica Powder from the Cosmic Shimmer Subtle Shades Mica Spray Set. I stamped the image panel from the Let it Snow Stamp using Perfect Medium and embossed with my custom made powder. I cut the image out around the outer tram lines. I cut a couple of Sue's Auvergne Dies and inked through the decorative die with Faded Jeans Distress Ink.

I stamped the sentiment from the Justrite Elegant Christmas Swirls using Perfect Medium and embossed with my powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Diamond Effects and inked through the die with Faded Jeans.

I cut a couple of Pine Boughs and twigs using Sue's Pine Bough die set. I cut some solid poinsettias out of Coconut White Card using Sue's Classic Poinsettia Die Set and some patterned poinsettias out of Sky Blue Card using Sue's Mosaic Poinsettia Die Set. I glued them together using Cosmic Shimmer Dries Clear Glue.

I assembled the card as shown adding some White Pearls and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pastel Blue PVA around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
