Hi stampers! Today’s card was created with the Beautiful Blizzard Bundle and Vellum Cardstock. The vellum mutes the Blueberry Bushel cardstock underneath, and a hit of blue has been added to the top to bring it all together. Add some rhinestones, and the card sparkles!
The Blizzard Thinlits Die is so much fun to work with, and you can make so many different projects with the pieces that you can cut. For this project, I ran a piece of Vellum cardstock through the Big Shot with the Blizzard die. The offcuts are the vellum snowflakes that were popped out of the vellum. I put these aside, and saved them for another project. The white snowflakes on this card came from a piece of Whisper White cardstock that I had cut for a completely different card. My stamp table was littered with snowflakes!
*Tip* When positioning the die on your cutting plates, make sure the die goes through the Big Shot “corner first”. We have found that it cuts the snowflakes better when placed on an angle. It helps to run it through more than once, and I HIGHLY recommend having a piece of parchment paper between the die and the cardstock. It really helps with the cutting process. Make sure you check the back of the cardstock before peeling it from the die to make sure that all snowflakes were properly cut.
Have I mentioned that I really enjoy using Blueberry Bushel cardstock and ink on this year’s snowflake cards? It has a lighter feel to it than Night of Navy, and it’s not as bright as Pacific Point. Both of those could also be used on these cards, it’s just that the Blueberry Bushel has really grown on me. Have a closer look at the card.
