What a fun card sketch for today! The hardest part was figuring out what images to use down in the corner. Since I’ve been working on tons of Christmas card designs snowflakes won out!
Have you checked out the Stitched Snowflake dies that are bundled with and coordinate with the Merry Snowflakes stamp set on page 13 of Stampin’ Up!’s July – December (Holiday) Mini Catalog? I love these die because the stitching sets them off perfectly! You can see three of the snowflakes on my card. Of course, you don’t want a naked snowflake so I had to add a rhinestone to the center of them. Ha!
Once again I managed to create above and beyond the sketch. The extra layer was a given but I also added the little sentiment and the strip of cardstock to make it pop. Maybe if the designer paper was a little brighter and busier I could have got by without the sentiment but I think it finishes off my rendition perfectly.
The designer paper is the Penguin Playmates paper from the Sale-a-bration Brochure. It’s a package of designer paper that you can choose for FREE when placing a $50 order but only through September 30th. The sentiment is from the Penguin Place stamp set on page 33 of the July – December Mini Catalog and yes, the paper coordinates with the stamp set! Gotta love coordination!!!
What products would you use on a project if you were using this card sketch? I’d love to know! Leave a comment and let me know!
Have a great day! Take care and Happy Stamping!
