A Sparkly Flurry of Wishes

IMG_6986Happy Day After Election Day!  Did you all vote?  In our area we only had a few things to vote on but I dropped my ballot off on Monday.  I did my civic duty and was glad to see that everything I voted for passed!  🙂

Today’s still going to be a nice day here in the Denver metro area but rain tonight will turn into those pesky little snowflakes by morning.  Don’t get me wrong….I like snow….it’s just that the first snow of the season is always a little hard to take….especially after the temperature has been in the 70’s for the past two day!

Since snow is on it’s way I thought I should post a card with snowflakes on it.  This card is from my “fancy” Christmas card class a few weeks ago.  It’s hard to see in the picture but everything sparkles!  The paper is Shimmery White.  I embossed the snowflakes and words with Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder and the ribbon is sparkly!  Don’t you love the new Gold & White 3/8″ Glitter Ribbon?  It’s so fun!  I know…you’re looking at the ribbon and are trying to tell me it’s not white.  You’re correct!  I used a sponge dauber and the Pool Party ink to color the back side of the ribbon!  How fun is that?!!!

I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before but I LOVE the new Softly Falling Embossing Folder!  Isn’t it great?  It doesn’t even have to be for snow if you don’t want it to.   Of course, another thing that I love on this card is the COORDINATING punch that goes with the Flurry of Wishes stamp set!  It’s great!

I don’t think I’m going to have to drag out my snow boots or snow shovel quite yet but I may have to dig out my winter sweaters for tomorrow.  Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!
