Good afternoon stampers! Today’s card features two of the items in the Limited Edition Snowflake Showcase – the Snowfall Thinlits and Snow is Glistening Stamp Set. These are now available for order! But first… we have 2 open spots at Saturday’s Stamp Your Holiday event in Brooklin, ON. Scroll down for details.
Amy Cook, a friend and fellow demonstrator, created this card for a swap that we were in. It was based on a sketch that the coordinator found online, so don’t be surprised to see more of the finished swaps pop up here on the blog in the coming days. I received some truly fantastic cards.
The base of this card is Thick Whisper White cardstock, which I feel is a must for those cards that sit horizontally on a flat surface. Thick cardstock prevents the cards from bending slightly and then sliding down until they’re flat. Amy die cut the white snowflakes from Glossy White cardstock, so they’re thick and shiny. Both sit nicely on the card, and don’t have a flimsy feel to them.
Copper is front and centre on the card. Between the accents on the Joyous Noel Specialty Designer Paper, the strip behind the snowflake and the small one in the middle, there’s a lot of muted shine. Even the piece of Merry Merlot & Copper Reversible Ribbon is shiny! You can see it even better on the side view of the elements.
The weather is very dull and gray outside today, and normally I photograph my cards on the living room in the muted sunshine. Because of the weather, and the fact that I’m completely behind in my work (I blame Saturday’s event!), the photos were hurriedly taken in the stamp room. It’s time to reset all of the lights before I take more photos. These ones are less than fantastic 🙂
