Let it Snow

Hi Bloggers.

Another Black & White Card today - this one is a Christmas Card.

For the background, I ran a piece of Coconut White Card through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations New Year Dove Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design.

I stamped the Let it Snow Stamp using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I popped a piece of Creative Expressions Double Sided Adhesive Sheet over the image and cut out the largest die from the Spellbinders Enchanted Labels 28 Die Set. I removed the backing and added Cosmic Shimmer Diamond Sprinkles.

I stamped the image again, this time using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Black Sparkle Embossing Powder. I cut the snow panel and the snowman panel out on the inner box lines and added them to the original image using 3d Foam.


I added a Self Adhesive Pearl Snowflake.

I popped a piece of  Creative Expressions Double Sided Adhesive Sheet over a piece of Black Card and cut 2 Christmas Trees using the Spellbinders 2013 Holiday Trees Die Set. I peeled off the backing and added Cosmic Shimmer Glacier Ice Glitter Jewels.

I tied a bow using Black Crochet Ribbon and added a Small Fancy Pearl Embellishment.

I assembled the card as shown adding some White Pearls to the top corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Cosmic Pearl around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
